ChromeOS supporting GNU/Linux applications now has ZERO to do with this new capability. Completely unrelated. Different kernels and even GUI is forwarded.
Plus how they implement Fuchsia is unclear or even for sure going to happen. ChromeOS already uses Skia so could be where they chose to tap into. But once again this has ZERO to do with this.
"it should be viewed as incrementally more bad news. "
Bizzare statement. GNU/Linux is using virtual drivers so if Fuchsia does a better and more secure job then all is good.
What you do not seem to understand is what Google has done is no different than if it was done on Windows or OS X.
It is purely a coincidence both are using the Linux kernel.
Running GNU/Linux on the client just got the biggest tail wind since it came out. This is a huge development for GNU/Linux on the desktop.
60% of K12 in the US is CBs. That is a big number of people now going to be able to use CBs to support things like AP CS 1 and 2.
BTW, how Google implemented is a huge plus to be intact if they moved to Fuchsia for ChromeOS not less.
