I'm glad you're enjoying your HomePod, but I still see no proof that Apple was going for anything different than Amazon, Google and Microsoft were with their speakers.
Well, sounding better than speakers much more expensive is exactly what the reviewers who were focusing on the sound were saying....particularly at that price AND size.

The evidence of what Apple was aiming for is right before your eyes. At $350 it could not possibly be aime at the “lady in a can” market that was around $150 for the Echo...and already down to $49 for the Dot.
