I agree with all of your points, but I think many of these models may be to support their ambitions in VR. One because it allows them to build VR devices that can do things like track objects, but also open sourcing it may mean there are more developers who can build applications which can do similar things.

If any company makes a useful and groundbreaking development, they can just buy them - it saves them a lot of money in the long run.
