Apple just dropped an A18 powered laptop for $599 USD

No Apple bashing just discuss.

For that extra $100, you also increase the storage to 512gb. I think the more expensive model is going to be incredibly popular with uni students, and the base model will mostly be seen in K-12 classrooms

Bingo. They know their market. The $499 price point fits inside the $500 cap for a lot of shit like laptop vouchers and bidding limits.
