I mean that's kind of the point of a Chromebook. Local storage doesn't really need much. ChromeOS runs ok with 4gb a lot better than Windows that's for sure.

If what you do most of the time is web browsing, or things that can be done in a web browser (e.g google docs), a W10 laptop is not better.
Chromebooks are light, cheap, have great battery life, are brand new, starts up in seconds and don't bug you about viruses and updates.
An older W10 machine is likely worse in all of those categories.
Chromebooks can also run Linux programs, which is probably what these higher end Chromebooks are aimed at.
Otherwise, the weaker processors (Celeron N4020 et al) are usually enough.
My hinge broke after only the 3rd walnut I tried to crack open with it.
