Well, then that company can expect to continue seeing middle fingers :)
Intel and AMD, the arch-rivals they are, coexist and collaborate on the kernel stack and Mesa. Even embedded companies join in (see Broadcom hiring Eric Anholt to make V3D a thing for the RPi4, even Qualcomm vaguely supporting Freedreno and Arm starting to show some kind of interest in Panfrost IIRC). Microsoft is in for virtualization and GL-on-D3D.
None of these vendors "owe anybody anything" yet they've joined the party. Turns out sharing is beneficial for everyone.
