The goal is that OrbStack is just a lot nicer to use. Better performance, lower resource usage, and many DX features (several of which are covered) that go together to create a delightful experience.

It's also a lot cheaper than the Docker Business rate (at least according to their pricing page), and the saved developer time should pay for itself quickly. It could even mean that companies can ditch expensive EC2 cloud dev environments, for example.

Orbstack even comes with working ipv6 out of the box unlike Docker Desktop for Mac which STILL doesnt have support for ipv6

A responsive developer who knows his product inside out, who replies daily to GitHub issues, values reports and resolves issues reported and releases fixes for reported issues in hours/days instead of months/years(if at all) - That alone is priceless and beats "official" Docker for Mac any day!
