At best these developers are just spending thier time and attention on a project to build an anti-trust defense for one of the richest companies on earth, and that has almost zero transfer of utility outside of apple systems, and that could be cut off at any time should it actually threaten apple profitability.
I can understand Coreillium wanting to do it and paying thier own devs to do so. Even if they do get cut off later, understanding the silicon better helps their core business model. But AsahiLinux as a community project trying to bring a "polished linux experience". I don't really get that.
