That will always be the case, some folks cannot get over that Android userspace is Java/Koltin, and the NDK use cases are officially real time audio, 3D rendering, writing native methods, reuse of existing C and C++ libraries and nothing else.
Everything outside those use cases is gated behind JNI calls, and Google has no plans to ever change it.
Naturally many with GNU/Linux mindset, and because Android runs on the Linux kernel, try to work around these restrictions, however Google isn't going to move an inch to make it easier.
