Do you think it's legal reasons, technical reasons, NIH syndrome, or some other reason why Android doesn't use OpenJDK?
A little bit of all of the above.
Android's usage of Java started right as Sun was being acquired by oracle and right before the jdk was GPLed.
... And I'll be. Apparently Android is using the OpenJDK since Android 7. [1]
