the problem was, it was holding back products. Because if youre going to make your own OS, it changes what chips you put in. If you don't know what chipset you're going to have, you don;t know what your pixel budget is, you can't plan features.
It takes about 2 years to get hardware out the door, and another 1.5 years to iron out the bugs and get a "finished" product.
