An open phone standard, and no, I do not mean the 'Open Handset Alliance' that doesn't even live up to its name, I mean like an ATX-equivalent standard for mobile devices.

An open-source ISA already exists in RISC-V, maybe that hypothetical ATX-for-mobile-devices standard could standardize around that for starters, as for an OS, it could standardize around non-Android Linux and maybe even some BSD mobile OSes instead of Google pulling some MS-in-the-'90s crap for Android like they're doing right now.

You need an equivalent of ACPI in the x86 space to catch on in ARM/RISC-V if you want a general purpose OS to be viable on phones

There's sort-of kind-of SystemReady in ARM but it's a far cry from the standardization of ACPI on x86 desktops

same for some laptops out there.

no reason a framework type thing couldn't be a thing for all laptops.
