I think the main thing there from makers I’ve talked to in fielding Console OS with them is the challenge in taking a design to production. They need LVDS because those Pi-targeting displays are not ideal when going into mass production.

It’s a last-mile challenge, granted, but mini-HDMI alone isn’t enough to port MAX board designs to manufacturing.

On the flip side, Intel has much more off-the-shelf Atom solutions that you can move over to… but not with ownership of the board design.
