The weird thing is that HP undermines their effort a bit by they doing the consumer bloatware thing where they 'load it up with stuff for you to do your job' according to their marketing material.

Are you referring to the laptop in this announcement? If so, I can't find anything suggesting that there's anything installed by default other than Pop_OS.

somewhere, someone must want this bloatware - otherwise it would have had to die out at some point. Although I'd be hard pressed to find this person.

The bloatware vendors pay them to include it.
