I feel the same argument applies to many other brands already including lenovo and sadly the thinkpad lineup.

Some others are contributing to the same trend by increasing prices and relying on cult fandom.

I have a bone to pick with Lenovo, the backlight doesn't work out of the box for my laptop in many Linux distributions because as far as I can tell they don't honour the acpi calls to adjust it.

I have to do a whacky work around where I need the proprietary Nvidia driver to control it.
