But clearly I am wrong, just look at all the cool things that the FPGA on SAM made possible...
Not to mention those nice USB-port that still are not decently supported in OS4.

In the end it all boils down to usability and the pricetag. If it ships with hardware one can only make use of from Linux, and the pricetag is high, then it is rather pointless.
