All modern jets have the same issue. It is a natural byproduct of
integration. My first plane, a Turbo Lance, had independent avionics and
instrument and no integration. My current plane, a Mitubishi MU-2
Marquise
has a SPZ500 flight director/autopilot system which is more integrated..
The altimeter is merely a display for an airdata computer located in the
nose for instance. The trend is not new. If there are enough G1000s in
service, other companies will start making boxes which will interface with
them.

If you have a jet, but small GA is going sole source.
