This quite literally the story of nouveau. The driver exists because people need it, and the driver is maintained by the people who wrote it. I don't see why the same doesn't apply to Linux on Apple Silicon.

Yes but how many nvidia graphics cards are there in circulation? I'd say infinitely more than there are Apple M1/2/3/4 chips in the wild.
is nouveau written in Rust?
No. However its replacement (Nova) is.
It doesn't support old GPUs so not a replacement for many.
