I agree the history is biased towards the more mainstream home systems, as opposed to the sized-down business systems, which is what the S-100 computers amounted to.
In fact, the distinction between "home" system (a mostly non-extensible computer in a plastic case with a ROM BASIC as an OS and a focus on graphical games and edutainment) and "business" system (an extensible, if not a kit, system in a metal case with CP/M or MP/M as an OS and a focus on business software) is lost, even in the histories.
