This should come standard on every Android, not just the flagships.
Google will probably build it into Android in five years and make it half as good as the existing solutions, like they always do.
The issue I have with this is the requirement of a special dock, which really limits its usefulness. It should just be able to be plugged into a monitor with USB-C, and it should have a wireless capability. Granted, that would require monitors to have Wi-Fi chips built in, but that would probably quickly become standard--or at least a slot to install one yourself--in that case.
You don't have to own that special dock, it's just an optional accessory. As long as the phone supports USB3 video output, you really are ready to go. You can even use Samsung DeX or Huawei EMUI Desktop (aka Easy Projection), and LG Screen+ with just a cable connected to a monitor. Tim Schofield made a video of Motorola's Ready For feature and he doesn't even use that special dock at all.
