This is a bit tangental, but.
While I agree the backwards compatability on PC is nice. The new M1 MBP Pro benchmarks quite clearly show, in my opinion, that the hell bent persuit of backwards compatability, on a _40 Year Old_ instruction set, may have significantly held computing back.
They've produced a chip that goes toe to toe with the fastest x86s parts, but does it in 10W instead of 65W. And this is their first shot at it.
I think we may need to recalibrate our expectations for long term software support, for both PCs and Consoles, if we want the most out of our hardware.
