That's right. On the other hand,
1. Nvidia hardware is pervasive, and CUDA has been around for many years. I
doubt it is going away anytime soon.
2. It is little effort on our part to support it.
3. We'd have some co-marketing opportunities with Nvidia if we support it.
4. Supporting CUDA doesn't impede supporting OpenCL.
