I was wondering about an accelerometer - the issue really is price (and also board space). If I can source a cheap magnetometer + accelerometer chip that handles both then possibly, but I think it's unlikely I'd change it for a while.
I guess potentially there might be an uber-puck that comes with loads of sensors (especially when the BME680 environment sensor finally gets released), but I wonder whether that'd be popular enough to justify it.
MicroBits do use a Nordic chip, but an older, cheaper one. There's very little RAM available, and it can't connect to other devices. However you can still connect to it (even from a Puck) and can do some fun stuff.
