On paper at least it could be good idea for a company in lattice's position, at very least academics would probably switch.

I would like to see a FAANG try and support some open tools - it doesn't have to be anything legally sketchy like reverse engineering bitstreams - for example, Yosys only has limited SystemVerilog support

Going to plug my work on this here: https://github.com/MikePopoloski/slang

At some point I'd like to see it integrated as the frontend to tools like Yosys to get best-in-class SystemVerilog support in open tools.
