Hasn't this always been the way Android operates? Developed in secret, source thrown over the wall every release?

I think this is more, that things are being developed without an explanation of its purpose. There's no "here are the new features in Android O" blog post

In this case the source isn't just being thrown over the wall, though. It's being developed out in the open, just without any indication of what it's for.
