This x 100.
A sub 1L "mini, tiny, micro" pc (mini = HP naming, tiny = Lenovo, micro = Dell) are much much better options than a RPI.
Remember these desktops are "business class" desktops that include all the BIOS bells and whistles. Secure boot, backup BIOS images, Block USB drives, etc.
You can routinely find something like an HP Micro 800 G3 for sub-$125. There is no reason to buy a weak, underpowered, hard-to-manage RPI for these use cases.
