I have windows 3.1 running in an emulator faster than that eras hardware could ever dream. So, gonna have to double disagree.

Faster isn't always better -- there's software from the era that relied on hardware limitations to throttle itself -- but I'd think that emulators probably have pretty good support for such throttling.

If someone wanted emulation, wouldn’t they have bought one of the many other tiny laptops that have been on the market for years?

I think the point of this is to run natively on vintage hardware.
