> I am particularly excited about the hardware flexibility- it seems a very good platform for scientific/engineering instrumentation (LiteX actually seems to be conceived because of this niche). That's doubly exciting! Yes it's great to see new possibilities opening up. The cost reduction I mean is the lowering the development costs for custom platforms. If you need a team of expert hardware designers to design this stuff then most labs/small companies will be "priced out" of that arena.
