Even if your numbers were right (as others said, $700 is more like i5+1060), I have one word for you: formfactor. The Studio's base is to be compared to the likes of mac mini and intel NUC I think.
As someone owning a full tower I don't think it's wise to cram all that desktop power in a stupidly small box, it's really adding cost and heat for the sake of looking good at the expense of performance, but that's what MS chose to do so comparisons should be kept fair. (I wouldn't buy the Studio for this very reason though, only the display itself).
