Hell has frozen over?
I think this is mostly just practical. Tainted kernels are more problematic for a variety of reasons these days (thinking about things like TPMs), so moving that stuff out of the kernel lets NVIDIA keep their proprietary drivers without sacrificing certain use cases.
I'm more interested in seeing NVIDIA hardware usable with mesa, which would be a much longer term project.
