Interesting idea... I think it's great that someone is doing this, but with all due respect - 1.6bn € via crowdfunding??? Canonical tried to get 32m back in 2

Canonical tried to get 32m back in 2013 for the Ubuntu Edge smartphone. Despite a promising start (> 1m in 5hrs), they failed to get more than 12.8m[1].
1.6bn / 12.8m = 125
Who is going to fund that?
