The top-specced Google Pixel Slate might be getting close to your ideal, minus the Adobe stuff, unless there are some Linux alternatives.

You are getting three OS’s in one device (Chrome OS, Android, and Linux apps via Crostini, arguably two of which are desktop OS’s), there is a full Chrome browser with all the extensions, there is full mouse support and secondary display support, and if you can find Linux alternatives to your essential software, you are running a desktop computer on a tablet.
