This is a really interesting technical write-up, but please no.
Adding more streaming to the cloud bullshit only adds dependencies, points of failure, costs and energy consumption. Especially when it's for playing games that can easily be emulated on any phone today.
Humanity's first goal should be to reduce its energy consumption! This is the opposite of the way forward.

In my view, it is to share and save hardware resources and hence reduce energy + material cost. It is the same as the way cloud provider optimizes resource by virtualization.
