I can't say I understand the continued interest in RPI emulation. A few years back it might have made sense, but small board options are much more varied now.

I can't say I understand the continued interest in RPI emulation. A few years back it might have made sense, but small board options are much more varied now.
The Nvidia Jetson Nano seems like a no brainer in the emulation space. It's 90$ with 4GB RAM (vs 70$ for a 4GB Pi4). For that extra Jackson, one gets actual GPU cores with compute support baked in(not to mention mature graphics drivers).
And its not like there is much of a trade-off for those CUDA cores. The Nano is also roughly the same size as a Pi, has that 40 pin header (it even throws in actual PCIe lanes)
I realize emulation is often CPU bound, but having a decent GPU on tap can't hurt.
I don't do small boards, so maybe I am missing something?
