I've never really understood what they are being marketed as - a cheap Windows netbook would be a much better bet all round, far as I can tell :?

You've hit on something there actually, 'There's so little you can do with it, you can't possibly balls it up! And isn't it shiny?' ;) ;) ;)

this is all equally, if not more, true of a tablet. It appears chrome books are for people who have very sophisticated use cases but don't know how to use a computer. That's a fairly niche market that is.
