But that's software not hardware. That could run on a pi. A PI has a 'usb drive' and you could code the OS to 'start the file' as soon as it is downloaded. Were PIs not conceived to be targeted at kids to learn programming ?

You can't run Pi on batteries (at least not for long). If you want any input or output device, you'll have to buy it, which makes it difficult/expensive to embed in projects (eg https://makecode.microbit.org/projects/toys).

Also you can program a micro:bit from a Pi :)
