Dependent? It's not dependent but targeted. That is the largest market for computers and computer accessories. That's why the PC market is often targeted because the rest of the majority exists.
I thought smartphones based on the arm64-v8a (or in some cases, armeabi-v7a) were actually the largest market for computers right now, and yet, despite having a larger market, they have a far crappier gaming experience.
