At launch? Doubt it. I think we're talking about two different strategies here. MS main goal is to spread gamepass to as many customers as possible at any price point, hence why we have series S in the first place. Also it wouldn't surprise me if an additional MS' plan for the series S was to create a base platform for their future XB handheld (if AMD manages to create low power SoC with the same specs. It'd be much easier to achieve than to have series X / PS5 handheld equivalent) to spread gamepass to all of those handheld lovers (mainly in Asia) and realistically starting to compete with Switch and Steam Deck.
