I too would like all 3rd party manufacturers to be able to produce RF lenses with AF builtin.

However, everything isn't all butterflies and rainbows for Sony or Nikon.

For Sony, 3rd party don't have access to "advanced" features like lens built-in IS + IBIS working together nor focus breathing compensation.

For Nikon, they only allows manufacturing of lenses that are not duplicates of what they already propose.

The last video that was touching this specific point with a lot of details was: https://youtu.be/P4c4g-qIubo

In the end, if you look for the best tool for your trade, you still have to buy Sony to shoot on Sony or Nikon if you shoot on Nikon most of the time...
