Eh, it seems like the Raspberry Pi Foundation has strayed from an org that started out building SBCs so kids could have a computer to tinker on, and are now entirely focused on being Broadcom's PR and Sales engine. The system on a module was definitely not created with kids in mind, nor was the open GPU driver.

I believe you've conflated the interests of a minority hacker community with the RPi Foundation's overarching mission of making an affordable compute platform accessible to those who otherwise can't afford one for the purpose of furthering the advancement of education.
