> with abstractions that don't require interaction with the rest of the system

I have no idea what this is supposed to mean. Drivers obviously interact with each other and with the rest of the system via all kinds of in-kernel interfaces.

Drivers are also not inherently system dependent. Even the sample rust driver is for android binder, which is not a real HW device, but some kind of IPC mechanism. So that one is quite system independent.
