Or they believe that designing their own cores would be cost prohibitive and prefer licensing them from ARM.
It's also not obvious to me than licensing conditions for RISC-V could be more favorable than what ARM is offering. Why would you anyone even license competitive cores their competitors if they can make more money selling them themselves?
