To me, re-architecting the Google / OEM split benefits both (disclosure: I haven't followed exactly what they're aiming for with Fuchsia). If it becomes possible to update to new Android features and security patches without breaking OEM overware, then OEMs no longer have to dedicate teams to rewriting their crap codebases. Which means they can put all those developers on features instead. Which is what they've always been interested in and (arguably) better at in the first place.
