They presumably assume they’d be selling so little that it wouldn’t be worth the trouble.
They’ll probably wait out this situation for a while and see what the competition does…
Comment on Framework temporarily pausing some laptop sales in the US due to tariffs

Why not add the tariff to the price? If someone in the US still wants it, they can buy it and pay the tariff.

By the time they calculate the result on their retail price and update the website the orange will probably change everything again.

I assume they will. The problem right now is how volatile and abrupt these policies are. If they make an adjustment now, sell a laptop at that price, and then tomorrow additional tariffs are implemented they may well end up with a loss on that sale to you. The pause is likely just to see where things will stabilize to.
