The market of skilled hardware designers is running low: training costs are high, complexity has skyrocketted. By doing this they can increase attention to a field that is otherwise dominated by big corporates (already somewhat the case). The only way to have a sane and healthy chip market is to make 1) the entry barrier low and 2) stimulate innovation. This does both of that.
