About kext support related on macOS 11

The RN of macOS 11 beta 6 said that "In macOS 11 and later, the kernel doesn’t load a kext if an equivalent System Extension solution exists. You may continue to use kexts in macOS 10.15 and earlier"

The equivalent System Extension is so subjective, how to understand the exact meaning of the 'equivalent' here with a little bit objective syntax? IOW: what's the essential indicator of the 'equivalent' between the sysext and kext?

A good place to start here is Deprecated Kernel Extensions and System Extension Alternatives. If, after reading that, you have further questions, please do post ’em here.
