AMD Engineers could have added support for Mantle just as well.

AMD has 'discontinued' Mantle in favour of OpenGL Vulkan. Vulkan borrows heavily from Mantle.
It's called Vulkan, not OpenGL Vulkan. It's not related to OpenGL, other than being made by the Khronos group.
Well, it used to be referred to as the "Next Generation OpenGL Initiative", but yes, its not technically the old OpenGL API any more.
