Correct, Kodi is useless if the device does not have a display 
controller/GPU and a screen output port like hdmi/VGA, whatever.

But OpenWRT/LEDE supports raspi and also a bunch of allwinner-based 
boards (raspi clones or similar, look up "sunxi alwinner" on google), 
and also x86 devices (normal PC hardware).
And all these devices can output to a screen.

In the repo package feeds there are far more niche packages than Kodi, 
imho it would be a good addition. It will also show to the world that 
LEDE isn't just for routers anymore.
