It is a complete rewrite with all the caveats it entails.

Plus on Apple platforms it relies on Catalist, while most likely it will never do Linux.

Additionally, now outside of Windows, the best Microsoft can think of is using VSCode, or let JetBrains do the needful.

As such I don't see it to gain adoption beyond the .NET shops that were already deeply invested into Xamarin.
