Most people are buying rpis because they can throw some boot image on it made for the rpi and have things just work. A regular computer, no matter how much better in performance, doesn't just work. For example: you can't just throw a Birdnet-Pi (https://birdnetpi.com/ https://birdnetpi.com/) image on a normal PC and run it. There is plain Birdnet but it doesn't have any of the automation or the web interface for use Birdnet-Pi does. Instead it's pages worth of complex multi-argument commands you'd have to customize and you'd have to port the web interface yourself. Since most people want rpis for little projects like this a normal PC massively increases the complexity.
