Virtzilla has built itself an island. Important players aren't welcome to visit and might go elsewhere

But for the rest of us, the DPU currently offers… very little.

So good luck if your preferred firewall is supplied by another vendor. Or if you fancy putting a DPU to work for purposes VMware has not yet enabled or envisioned. Virtzilla in its current mood doesn't want to help. Which again is odd because one of the more notable makers of DPUs is a little outfit called Cisco, which suggests you adopt DPUs for the same reasons as VMware as part of its quiet acquiescence to software-defined networking.to allow development of workloads to run on its DPUs. Hopefully it's useful to many.
