Agree about amdgpu - the engineering plan was "amdgpu kernel driver", "amdgpu X driver", "amdgpu all-open stack", "amdgpu hybrid stack" (everything fully qualified), but you know the old saying... no plan survives first contact with Marketing.

So marketing thinks half-closed is professional, and all-open is hobby?

Nope, just that you have to work the term "pro" into product names somewhere, and preferably some "X"s as well.
