Linux Touchpad Like MacBook Update: 2023 Progress on Smooth Scrolling
It's a little more than that, they then added subpixel and momentum scrolling support to Chrome that bypasses X11 and does something custom [1]. Integration problems like this one that require a bunch of coordination are harder to do in open source land.

Can i game on a 140$ amazon chromebook??
Install Crouton and run Linux on your Chromebook without VM/container penalties. More complicated than Crostini but also better performance. https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton

Question about usage on a chromebook
IMO if you want to do this you'll need to install Ubuntu(or another fully-fledged Linux distro) on your Chromebook using either Crouton, Breath, or by flashing a Coreboot firmware and installing Linux on the hardware, then using the instructions for regular Linux. If you flash a Coreboot firmware you will in some ways un-Google the device and won't be able to use regular ChromeOS anymore unless you return to a stock firmware.

Functional difference between terminals?
Because it's not intended that ChromeOS users should need to modify the base operating system (e.g. to install software), it doesn't come with a package manager like apt or emerge. (However, you can install one if you want using something like Chromebrew* or Crouton*.)

Vi gone from /usr/bin, terminal no longer in browser tab, vi under crostini gets extra keystrokes
Apparently works on a vanilla Chromebook, no Crouton or Crostini, but must be in developer mode as stated here: https://github.com/chromebrew/chromebrew
Curious that no mention of developer mode is made here: https://chromebrew.github.io/
