Realistically, the target audience are organizations as nowadays most business laptops are being carried between docking stations with the occasional meeting or air travel in-between and 13" is an excellent size to meet those needs.

When hooked to a docking station, the screen size and keyboard is entirely irrelevant and modern laptop performance is...honestly crazy good.

When in a meeting, it's probably being either used to take notes fullscreen or show a presentation, so pretty neutral.

Finally, when traveling, you can really can feel the difference between a 13" and a 15" when you're running on too short of a layover between flights.

You nailed it. I’m the target audience for this and that is exactly how I use my laptop. Now if only framework would add a touchscreen option and I’d buy it tomorrow.

I'm right there with you. As silly as it is, I absolutely love the touchscreen on my Lenovo. I could live without it, sure, I don't wanna. Once framework supports it, I'm there.
