Plenty of fundamental research and development happens in academia fairly effectively.

Government has to fund not run it like any other grant works today. The existing foundations and non profits like Apache or even mixed ones like Mozilla are fairly capable of handling the grants.

Expecting private companies or dedicated volunteers to maintain mission critical libraries like xz is not a viable option as we are doing it now.

Seems like we agree then. There is a middle point and I would actually prefer for it to be some sort of open source one.
