One thing that may help discriminate/affect staying power is to what extend the 
SBOM is a win-win, rather than `make work'. Which means that slightly richer 
SBOMs, which allow you to express things such as EOL state, announced EOL 
dates, provenance/source/`vendor', source URLs, license-URLs, ECCN Classifier 
numbers, and other `stuff' that can let you automate CI/CD, compliance, 
governance reports and so on, help a lot.
