Definitely would never happen. iCloud is a huge lock in factor to iOS / macOS. Opening that up would be like opening up iMessage, it would allow way too many people to easily leave the Apple ecosystem. iCloud + iMessage are two of the best features of iOS (and that lovely UI + good security)

Well, the idea is opening it up only for an Apple sold AOSP phone. In some way that attracts customers that aren't in their current demographics, but without cannibalizing current customers. But, yes, agree...won't happen.
