To this day I don't understand why Google didn't release a reference implementation of the firmware as open source Android-style.
Because that company is completely insane and gotten too big for their britches. Also, I feel a company that big unfortunately can't be touched by right to repair... or does that movement even include stuff like bricked stadia controllers and bios locked laptops destined for the landfill?
I'd imagine that some of the tech the controller users is licensed from other rights holders, so Google can't just open source it.
I wrote "reference implementation", not open source the existing firmware.
