I think that is exactly the stage in the life-cycle that the ecosystem is currently in. This is for those people to start working. The previous level of getting the Linux kernel working is done, now it's onto the drivers.
After this will be ironing out power management and Wayland issues.
Only after that will it be ready for the end consumer. Thousand miles, first steps sort of thing, but yeah, it's not ready for Linus to drop and then benchmark CS2 on.
