Then to be honest it's a bit difficult to explain this to you in one post. Assuming you are even willing to consider any other perspective than you own egoistical current short-term position, then if you want you should read up on how this industry operates, on politics in it, on how processors and architectures are contracted and licensed, on what lobbying and political tools do big manufacturers like Intel use in order to get their advantage, about the history of the different architecture in general, on cybersecurity of the aspects of open/closed silicon, etc. etc.
In short, yes RISC-V is a huge deal and if you care anything about software, hardware or computing in general you should be very happy and optimistic because of its existence. The team behind it is doing a tremendous monumental job of creating a free architecture, and they are still in the beginning of it.
