Vantablack is not remotely durable enough as an exterior finish for a consumer device. Black 2.0 is not porous, but it isn't exactly durable either. Even if this is as revolutionary as making a hardened Vantablack, I don't see how it could be cleaned as porous structures naturally adsorb pollutants, and none of these materials will retain their light absorbing properties with a dirty surface.

Ok ngl, that would have actually enticed me quite a lot and swayed me more to the Macbook M1 if they released a finish like that.
