They don't seem to care that much about performance unless it means reduced powet consumption.
Looks like their main reasoning for dropping vulkan was: 1. it has too many dependencies, which violates their principal of minimalism, and 2. it's not backwards compatible enough for their arbitrary definition of backwards compatibility. I guess it should support hardware back to the very first gpu, but also have less dependencies
