Microsoft did. Windows 11 SE was way too heavy to run on Chromebook-esque hardware... Even single tasking was dreadful. Before that, vendors like HP (Stream) sold a near Chromebook equivalent with Win10.. similar problem, but 11SE was worse. So this new heap is likely their next run at it or WindowsRT 2.0.
