I agree with your points. I would add:

- Making the project open allows people to reuse displays they already own.

- Others can contribute and build on what’s been created.

- Open source firmware, documentation, and the driver board make development more accessible and help remove barriers that previously slowed community projects.

- It’s designed to work with a variety of electrophoretic panels, not only those from E Ink.

In the long run, this openness will strengthen the ecosystem, making it easier for new ideas to take shape and spread.
