Nothing to do with the license.

These systems do things that Linux just can't.

Linux is no RTOS, nor does it have a pure microkernel architecture. It can't do anything where latency guarantees are needed (hard realtime) nor high assurance, nor any actual semblance of security.

Fuchsia definitely has something to do with the license. Currently Google is forced to release their changes to the kernel.

I really do not see a connection between both sentences.

There's far enough technical reasons to ditch Linux for a cleaner design.
