I thought this is where NetBSD shines, why not just enhance NetBSD? or why pulling OpenBSD into embedded space?

  Forking is the way of the BSDs. The BSD style is to develop the userland along with the kernel. Thus where Linux has multiple distro families BSD has full userland and kernel forks.

    That doesn't explain why you'd start from OpenBSD.

      The people who started the fork are ex OpenBSD developers. It makes all the sense. Why wouldn't they start with what they already know, find good, and are happy to work on?
