Quorum Writes, Quorum Reads is as ACID compliant as FoundationDB iirc.

The only thing I can think of is Apple has an internal team that is building a Cassandra replacement and they need more qualified engineers with experience.

Not even close. FDB did arbitrary multi-key transactions. Cassandra can only do Compare-And-Set on single keys IIRC.
