I think costumers have a few issus. First of all, one of the biggest reason consumer companies want RISC-V is because they can select between multiple vendors. Qualcomm would very likely be the only high performance implementation of their standard. So you are binding yourself to Qualcomm. Second, the software ecosystem is huge, far more then compiles. And given how everybody today uses open source, making all that available for Qualcomm seems like a losing effort. Is Qualcomm gone pay to make Android Qualcomm-RISC-V ready. Are they gone provide advanced verification suits. Formal analysis and all that stuff?
