It still exposes the gpio pins. So if you want to build something with a pi (as opposed to for the pi) then this is actually quite nice.

I for one ordered one (and am playing with it right now) because it's an incredibly low barrier way to dogfood some software projects on arm. I'm loving it, it's very different to an arm laptop, it's got more of a console feeling which is great :)

Sounds great. I got an Rpi 4 this year, my first contact with this world. I'm happy with my tv/media box (that I also use as generic linux cli environment)
