I always assumed that was your humorous take on a nickname.
Users will have their reasons for wanting, or not wanting Andúril, and the same applies for the manufacturers.
Many logical reasons have been cited. In general, the higher end brands cater to “pro” users who want tools, and can afford to employ staff to develop firmware and driver solutions in-house to meet their specific product goals. The budget brands cater to their enthusiast market, with less demanding fundamental needs, but more demands for the bells and whistles that serve to bolster the “value” quotient, modification potential and bragging rights of sorts. A low-cost solution that makes for an easier sales pitch to their most loyal customers, requiring little other than attribution (which some do better than others). Despite the open source nature, there are few attempts to make modifications, and the community can be leaned on to implement those, with some individuals doing it for themselves, which get shared with the community.
Personally, I think there is a still a lot of untapped potential, but for whatever reason, also a lot of reluctance to do so on the part of the manufacturers.
Ultimately, the whys and hows are resolved by the market and sales numbers.
