Who cares if a piece of open source has American maintainers? The point is not to avoid touching anything American. It is control and sovereignty.

This is what I implied: this is not against the US, which have actually the most control and sovereignty on critical software.

It is much cheaper and easier to have control and sovereignty on less complex software, including the SDK.

Usually you get developer lock-in via non-pertinent complexity, often including the SDK namely the computer language.
