The form factor was hugely appealing to computer users in the 1980's, presumably because you could just plug in into the wall socket and television and everything was ready to go. I would imagine that some parents would pick them up for their kids, particularly if they wanted them to use computers for learning rather than media consumption. Some people may pick one up to emulate those vintage home computers. Some may pick them up to develop software for a Pi 4, simply because it's easier to swap a uSD card between a Pi 4 and 400 than it is to connect a keyboard and monitor to an otherwise headless Pi 4.
