Hell, even their approach is to retrofit Linux binaries rather than trying to modify Android to run on Fuchsia. Android is a different beast itself, I'd rather see a better, reworked Android runtime and HAL that is idiomatic to Fuchsia rather than this one. The same could be said for ChromeOS too.

But that seems to be exactly what they are doing. They're surely porting the Android runtime to Fuchsia, or even already ported it.

Remember there are Android APKs containing native Linux banaries (made with Android's NDK) that you should be able to run. That is the whole main point of Fuchsia' starnix. I think this is even mentioned on starnix's RFC.
