To expand on this, Polars' `LazyFrame` implementation allows for simple addition of new backends like GPU, streaming, and now distributed computing (though it's currently locked to a vendor). The DuckDB codebase just doesn't have this flexibility, though there are ways to get it to run on GPU using external software.
