I agree. That is what Framework has done. However they are only providing motherboards Intel 12th gen P series, which run super hot.

People keep asking them to switch to AMD or ARM but they aren't budging.

Perhaps what Pine64 should do is, make a motherboard for the Framework laptop that includes a more reasonable CPU. Maybe the octacore Rockchip RK3588?
This could expand the market for Pine's products.

The Framework laptop design is quite nice, good screen, good keyboard etc.
