I would love the child of a Surfacebook with a Framework laptop; or A bare keyboard attached to a screen, that I could plug my phone (possibly running Phosh) and use it as a hardware for a laptop experience

PineNote exists too, though it's often out of stock. Remarkable tablet has a pretty decent hacking community, and gives you its root password in settings. Kobo devices have been able to run aftermarket software for years, and recently there's been progress in booting a complete OS. If you're okay with Android there are even more choices. @crunchpaste@lemmy.dbzer0.com you've got some options!
