1000x sounds nice, but can you trust the results?

Also, why doesn't the funding go to more general linear algebra (and related) solver software, which can then be used in many physics packages?

Note that DifferentialEquations.jl already has bindings for R and Python, so this has the potential to be used in many physics packages.

Having three horses in the race competing for the stated goal is a better bet for results you can at least compare the pro/cons of their approaches to. At next iteration, fuse the best parts and recompete towards the stated goal.
