How is that different from Linux with all virtio drivers? (You can just not compile real hardware drivers)

I would imagine that virtualized device drivers would have a well-defined api and vastly simplified logic.
Shouldn't we start building hardware that have a builtin translation layer that makes them driveable by virtio drivers themselves? At least for the most capabilities?
I imagine they do. But given that Linux has those simple drivers, why not use them?
