This is really cool, but, longer term, what happens if Google makes android closed source? I feel this is a very real risk.

Not sure if the big manufacturers would want to depend on a proprietary Google OS. Samsung does make a lot of changes to the OS, for instance.

They won't because they literally control the mobile market by having Android open source.
