The argument would apply in the same way FreeBSD if google tried to move android to FreeBSD. The point is not that a kernel with such license exist, but rather that a major platform is moving from a GPL kernel to a non-GPL kernel. This will surely harm linux phones in the future. Whether it is the end of the world is something I do not know, but it is not a net positive for software and hardware freedom on mobile devices.
