From the blog post:
This Mainboard is extremely compelling, but we want to be clear that in
this generation, it is focused primarily on enabling developers,
tinkerers, and hobbyists to start testing and creating on RISC-V. The
peripheral set and performance aren’t yet competitive with our Intel and
AMD-powered Framework Laptop Mainboards. This board also has soldered
memory and uses MicroSD cards and eMMC for storage, both of which are
limitations of the processor. It is a great way to start playing with
RISC-V though inside of a thin, light, refined laptop.
Unless you're just wanting to tinker with RISC-V, this isn't going to be your next laptop.

Cool. It'd be fun to play with that :)
More importantly to me, it's partner developed hardware. It shows
Framework trying to build an ecosystem around modular hardware.
