This is an issue most OEMs have had with desktops and laptops forever.
To try and squeeze every possible price range as much as possible they create these complex brand/sub-brand configurations, some of which can be even further customized by user desired specs, which ends up making the whole product offering confusing.
As the customer, even a tech literate one that works in the IT field, trying to sort through the options on the Dell/Lenovo site is far more annoying than it should be.
Give me the chassis size (screen size in the case of laptops) and then let me mix and match the major internal components as I need/want and call it a day.
No one actually gives a shit what the branding is beyond "is this a Dell/Lenovo/Asus/etc".
