I agree with this, and have posted similar things before.

The question I asked last time this came up, which was left unaswered:

 Who does this stable DT ABI vision benifit, and how much is that
 benifit worth?

As an embedded ODM, I don't get very much value out of it, and I think
others in my space would say the same.

I continue to think the embedded vs not embedded are different and it
makes no sense to pretend that my embedded system has the same
requirements as something like a chromebook.
