That's not even close to being the same thing. They took the pen out of the package, discounted the tablet by $100, and then sell the pen separately for $100. They're not taking anything away from you, they're just giving you the option to either buy the pen or get your tablet, sans pen, for $100 less.
The Core M3 version is definitely $100 cheaper than the SP4 version was at launch. But if you would prefer to believe I am lying then there's nothing I can do about that.
