At risk of stating the obvious: does she find that it’s holding her back? There are all kinds of learning that are possible via a Chromebook (as you’ve noted, she seems to be doing just fine using it for Roblox and school). If she wants to dig deeper into customizing her local workstation, you’re likely going to need to supplement the chromebook with something else. Not sure it needs to be a laptop, especially if she wants to understand the interior components. If she wants to do things like web development / Devops / sysadmin / etc style learning, the local env isn’t hugely important, there’s any number of VPS options or local NUC/RPi/etc options for giving her access to a hobbyist environment that can run Linux/Windows as she chooses.
