Given that you guys don't list Linux APIs as something that one can count on as stable NDKs APIs, require us to manually write JNI wrappers to access 90% of OS features, no not really.

It could be running BSD or Windows and we would hardly notice.

Was waiting for the first "No True Scotsman" definition of what precisely Linux is.

Guess we better get rid of the hardware abstraction layer for your majesty, too, then?

Depends how much the Chocolate Factory Oompa-Loompas are willing to actually offer a C and C++ development environment comparable to other GNU/Linux variants.

Better ask Willy Wonka if it is ok to do so, and by Android 20 we might eventually get it, if it takes as much as sorting out header files, build tools, native dependencies, gcc and clang support and finally listening to game developers as presented at GDC 2020.

Link? Otherwise it's hard to take full time HN armchair commenters seriously.
