Yes we should have seen (me included) that going the free android distribution path was a long term trap.

This is where the Stallman hard, radical and long term vision make a lot of sense in retrospect. Because we see now Google is pulling the rug.

the smart strategy is to put effort into projects that have a fork failsafe option

and concentrate effort on the components that don't have this (ie. drivers, hardware, codecs, whatever), but instead what we got is 20 more years GnomeJS and whatnot.
