I have not talked with distros about it, but quite a few of them enable
Binder because one or two applications want to use Binder to emulate
Android. I imagine that even if Android itself goes back to built-in,
distros would want it as a module so that you don't have to load it for
every user, rather than for the few users that want to use waydroid or
similar.
A few examples:
