That sounds fair, but opens up another N questions:

- Are there APK(s) that run on Tensor?

- Is it possible to run on Tensor if you're not Google?

- Is there anything at all from anyone I can download that'll run it on Tensor?

- If there isn't, why not? (i.e. this isn't the first on device model release by any stretch, so I can't give benefit of the doubt at this point)

No. AiCore service internally uses the inference on Tensor (http://go/android-dev/ai/gemini-nano)

No.

Mostly because 3P support has not been a engineering priority.
