That forces you to sandwich two boards together (connector, more costs, etc), and still you have no freedom regarding which peripherals to place around the RPi SoC.

The average integrator doesn't want to mess around with things like DDR5 routing or designing power supplies for the SoC. There are lots of other companies such as AMD and Nvidia selling SOMs so the fact that they are selling SOMs can hardly be something to complain about.

There’s a free PCIe lane that you can put whatever you want on
