If their framework is using Vulkan, why is it not compatible with anything but MacOS? Isn't the point of Vulkan that it's cross platform?

It's not fundamentally incompatible, they just haven't written the code to make it compatible yet. GPU frameworks need a lot of OS specific code, so it will take some time for them to make it run perfectly on Linux.
