This project has been trying to address the things you brought up for almost a decade: https://libre-soc.org/

There is nothing new about what I'm saying, there's entire organizations trying to address these things: https://www.oshwa.org/

And interdisciplinary teams: https://www.law.nyu.edu/centers/engelberg/news/2020-10-20-op...

I'm glad you found new inspiration.
