nobody forces 'em to use it.
besides, they can start their own project which will fulfill their needs.

What about those who couldn't care less about qwerty, & would prefer more of a hybrid between freemantle & harmattan?

and many people thinks that qwerty is one of that things that making N900 so wonderful. as Neo900 is a 'drop-in replacement' for N900, it *absolutely must* have qwerty. so people who don't want it have to choose another device, i think.

It's all matter of people interested in such project. I'm not interested in Harmattan, so I won't contribute, but maybe there'll be enough other people with proper skills?
Anyway, Neo900 project itself, just as GTA04, is not about software. The only connection to software it has is effort to make it compatible with N900, and a side effect of that is some compatibility with Fremantle. The rest is done by FPTF.

It's somewhat redundant anyway (like FPTF?), as many of the same concepts live on in Nemo/Sailfish (just like of Freemantle's do).

The tail never wags the dog so if there are people interested+capable to do a hybrid or whatever, it will get done by such people just like how this is being done by interested and capable people who explored for quite some time the feasibility of using the GTA04 board before posting about its possibilities...
