Let’s take the kind view? If Apple has a problem in a former engineer possibly using insider knowledge that is first and foremost a problem between Apple and said engineer. Reasonably if that first round kicks off, in the second round of problems an OSS project is possible in scope.
The engineer and the project have discussed these risks and decided to continue in a fork from Asahi. So I would say that this is (nearly) how it is supposed to go. Asahi stays clean from contagion and Gravity Linux has taken a, hopefully well considered, risk.
