It's not as nonsensical as it sounds: being an open hardware (iirc, with 2 exceptions) and software device, no one is locked out of doing/running anything they want to. So rather than the typical 'if you can jailbreak and then figure out how (good luck with that!), maybe you can do it' it is instead 'if you know how to write/port it and work with our well understood hardware, you absolutely can do it.' A good example even on 'open' Android devices: you are typically stuck with a particular binary blob for the GPU drivers pretty much forever because there is no publicly available documentation for the hardware and therefore no open source GPU drivers are likely to ever exist.
