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

Most current phones with keyboards are more like micro laptops (where you have to put it down and type with all your fingers) than phones like BB (where you type like on a phone). Last BlackBerry models were not bulky at all and had great keyboards.

Im not aware of that form factor with any Linux phone though. Might be better especially if sticking to terminal.

I don't think there's any. But I'm just saying that keyboard phones don't have to be bulky.
