Let me put things this way.
IF I am happy with what a Chromebook offers in the way of Word Processing, that is, performance and functionality for a writer...
...will a solid E-Ink Android Tablet, like the Likebook Alita or Boox Note 3 (more likely the Alita) offer the SAME or better experience (performace, functionality for word processing) -- just easier on the eyes for extended periods ?
((this takes into account the fact some people feel chromebooks are lacking in this respect, which I don't find, but if the Tablet can't produce this, then it may indeed not be up to my needs))

I get a headache from prolonged color screen work, so I use EInk for input and viewing.
I don't know the Chromebook.
But of course EInk tablets don't do what I can do with my workstation - I don't care about the formatting capabilities of the text entry application either.
I use Boox Note Air for keyboard input of texts (landscape format), which I then format on the workstation - I don't need a lot of storage because the data is transferred to the workstation for format creation and final processing.
I use Likebook Alita almost exclusively for handwritten notes and comments (portrait format) in PDF files - that takes up a lot of space.
Keyboard input works too, of course, but I rarely use it here.
I then display formatted texts on the EInk devices.
