Chrome OS Tablets can run Linux, making the dream of OTG GNU/linux a reality. The tablet in question runs an OP1 arm processor, you could easily build a smaller tablet with Chrome OS. I hope a 7", 7.9", or 8" chrome os tablet with stylus comes out.

I am sorry to say that but the last two answers are, sadly, mutually exclusive.
With that said, the "a true Linux" conversation will ultimately be dragged into esoteric knowledge around licensing, kernels, blobs or theory. Sadly, none of that ever really mattered to the layman.
Nor will any of the above. This will be all forgotten one day.
