i don't think Apple is particularly interested in the low end Chromebook market. It has also been largely replaced by tablets and phablets and is pretty niche nowadays.

Kind of my point though; the low end isn't even worth it for PC manufacturers anymore. And by the time you get to a ~$600 laptop, you can have a cheap M1 device with 10x the performance/watt. The new M1 iPad Air starts at $700, and absolutely blows any existing Intel laptop out of the water, short of a desktop replacement gaming rig with discrete GPU.
