#5I'm not entirely up to speed on the situation of UEFI secure boot for ARM; didn't Microsoft mandate that it can't be disabled for such devices to boot Windows? Is that the case here?

As more and more things become connected and automated, why would they not want to extend their platform to those devices?
The architecture of the Pi is common enough that is probably serves as a proof-of-concept for commercial vendors who want to build programmable products that would be well-supported by operating systems and device drivers (by piggy-backing on the work done for the Pi).
