The point, perhaps, is for one to emerge as the prominent choice, the correct one. Diversity however has its own value.

I wish Android manufacturers contributed to AOSP, so that it would still be one ecosystem, but with shared ownership. But I guess it's more profitable for all of them to let Google do it on their own. And it sucks for the user, because we have to live with Google's decisions.
But does Google accept third-party contributions for AOSP?
Yes, anyone is free to contribute to AOSP and many manufacturers already do.
