They're working towards it. Lots of former system apps are being extracted from the base OS and turned into apps updated through the Play store. The most recent I remember was the Calendar app, which changed into Google Calendar through the Play store.

I was hoping they would at least create a whole line-up of "Nexus" devices from all manufacturers that would be updated the way they update the Chromebooks. But I'm beginning to think that won't happen either
