It's not rebadged Debian. The default Linux in Chrome OS is literally Debian. It has apt, bash, Wayland, X11. And of course the Linux kernel is there. What more do you want before you call it Linux?

According to this page all 2019+ Chromebooks support Linux apps: https://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/chrome-os-systems-suppo...
Chrome OS is Gentoo based and did not let you install arbitrary Linux apps until relatively recently. I think the comparison is apt.

I agree, but I don't think that you're making the point you wanted to.
Do all chromebooks support linux apps now? AFAIK that's not true, and only a subset of them support it.
