So, it's not a problem if Linux support will be confined to Android or the older "LSP" concept in which every board has a custom kernel, but that's not really a scalable solution that allows for generic support. It's really the same problem as "why have a PC platform" and not just various different kinds of x86-based boards with x86-compatible chips :)
And to answer my own question :) The difference is billions of dollars and massive success in the marketplace once we have a common platform.
Thanks,
