That’s what Purism does already, they are selling bog standard OEM laptops and now “NUCs” with Coreboot at a pretty high premium.

Unlike System76 they aren’t even maintaining a swanky Linux distro like PopOS.

Um, they are maintaining a distro. It’s called PureOS [0].

Just to clarify, it’s possible to focus solely on providing drivers for known hardware configurations and across a variety of OSes. Deciding to fork Debian and maintaining a distribution on top of those drivers seems massively unnecessary.
