I wonder why google hasn't mandated some open standard like BIOS for all new arm based phones/tablet/smart-device that have the playstore and google services. I can't see it doing anything harmful to them and would make the whole ecosystem easier to develop for and may even make spread and make arm based laptops/desktop/servers more standardized which would be useful for data centers and such. it would probably help with the whole shitty driver situation on arm platforms. I honestly don't see a downside for anyone if everyone is having to do it which mandating it for android would essentially insure.
