It was so simple for Google to add desktop mode to Android during Android 5 times. And they even had Android TV as a mouse-oriented hardware. And they could populate Play Store with quality opensource Linux desktop apps, by just organizing the work, there's currently no technical reason why Krita or Gimp couldn't be built for Android natively, it's just that no one cares to do it after Google ignored Android desktop mode for ten years.
I guess someone could cross-compile a bunch of desktop Linux apps like Gimp or Krita and publish them to Play Store to run on Chromebooks. There was some work on porting Wayland to Android, there's also X server on Android although it's unmaintained, and all other libraries like QT and GTK can be cross-compiled with some effort on top of Bionic.
Subway that arrives almost to my office. Yes it's a bit slower overall, but I can doomscroll my phone for a hour per day instead of rotating the wheel for the same amount of time.

I'm in the same boat, I have (or rather had) published a few Android games which I don't have time to update anymore, and Google had been unpublishing them one by one.
I've had problems with KDE on Wayland on Debian 12, it fails when entering sleep mode with multiple monitors. Thankfully, KDE on X is just one package install away, and it works with no bugs.
The first one is a fancy CPU warmer. The second one will play loud noise through your headphones, and setsid will make sure you can't stop it with Ctrl-C.
There was a thread about console commands seen in movies or TV, when the actors need to do some 'hacking' on camera. And the most common one was just installing updates to your Linux distribution of choice.
Because military engineers overengineer these things from the most expensive materials available, and they also perform frequent maintenance on them, which is also expensive.
C++ is OVERWHELMINGLY SUPERIOR, if you ask any professional C++ developer.
