There is no abstraction for anything unless you distribute it? What is the abstraction for AV1 decoding on CPUs that don't support it? Implementing it in a software library? The only problem with FPGAs is that they have even more interesting side channel problems, but FPGAs will be more space efficient than half a dozen ASIC implementations on a chip, or even a dozen cores to replace the implementations.
