If everyone will pardon my curiosity, who and what purposes are these
smaller environments for and do many people use them?

I mean the price of a typical minimal laptop is not a big deal today. So are
these for some sort of embedded uses?

I read about them ages ago but wonder ...

using-an-mpu6050-on-the-raspberry-pi-pico-w/

You might have to go back a lesson or two for the lead up. As he generally 
says in the intro most of what he uses is from the Sunfounder Kepler kit. 
It has a standard LCD display but he suggested buying the OLED separately 
and used it for Lissajous patterns and other fancier stuff.

It's not a bad series although he can be long-winded and his Python style 
definitely isn't PEP8 friendly. 

https://toptechboy.com/

He switched to the Arduino Uno R4 after the IR controller/NeoPixel Pico 
project and I don't know if he intends to go back to the Pico. He uses 
Thonny but I use the MicroPython extension in VS Code. Lately I've been 
using Code for everything. Mostly I work on Linux boxes but it's all the 
same on Windows. There is a PlatformIO extension that works with Arduino 
and other boards. PyLance upsets some because it's a MS product but it 
works well too.  I've used PyCharm and like it but I also work on C, .NET, 
Angular, and other projects and Code gives me a uniform IDE.
