Willing to bet that was a typo and should have said "EF mount."

Do you mean their cinema camera that has swappable mounts including DL mount, L mount, and M mount all coming first-party from DJI themselves? 

Nikon is currently supporting RF mount with RED cameras, it doesn't mean they will make a RF mount mirrorless camera. In every transition process, support for non native mount makes sense; but its only a transition. If the ultimate goal wasn't to fully committed to their own mount, they wouldn't make it at the first place.

There is also the Japanese side. Why you take their permission for granted? Why they should license their mount to a Chinese giant with billions of dollars of R&D? They can eat Panasonic for breakfast.

The L Mount Alliance is actually governed by Leica though.

Leica accepted DJI into the alliance over three years ago now.

Whether there is a covenant limiting DJI to only ever using it on the Zenmuse X9 is open to interpretation I suppose but I would be surprised if it’s limited to a single camera.

If there is a DJI mirrorless about to be launched then we will soon find out how much of a “full” member they are.
