I would love the child of a Surfacebook with a Framework laptop; or A bare keyboard attached to a screen, that I could plug my phone (possibly running Phosh) and use it as a hardware for a laptop experience

Those exist!

They're called "lapdocks".

I've been wanting to make my own cyberdeck based off my phones dex and parsec to my VM but currently I just use a small USB hub to a kvm so I can switch between my work computer and my phone attached to a monitor but it's not cool and portable

I love my NexDock 360! I mostly use it as a mobile screen for a Roku or as an interface when I need to set up bare metal servers.

How about a wireless lapdock for my desktop, so I can have the processing power in mobile form.
