You are talking about embedded 32-bit microcontrollers. By your logic, Rockchip, Motorola and Texas Instruments should have also been bidding on Sony and Microsoft's contracts. I don't think this even warrants a response.
> Nvidia could have used Mellanox parts at any point, btw. They just chose not to compete.
They certainly showed up to compete. You might not think their moves are fair or friendly, but that's how things go in love and war. Don't hate the player, hate the game.
