It would mean the diminishing of market share of proprietary US software and hardware.

Linux and *BSD run on RISC-V. RISC-V devices will be shipped with an open source OS and apps. Android users won't even notice / care about what chip is inside their tech.

And it puts app lock-in to the test.

It would be a blast seeing Linux gathering a lot more influence.

And the notion of running a fully FOSS based system, down to the hardware root is just wonderful.
