I wonder if there are public statistics on how many intel chips, what portion of production, end up running linux. Probably quite a lot, what with all the cloud fleets? So, yeah, ARM etc reminds them that there are alternatives. They don't need to focus on specific comparisons with ARM for it to be good business to keep Linux running as well as they can make it on Intel. Plus the marketing from being seen to do it. It seems pretty straightforward to me. Focusing only on spending money on very specific measurable outcomes on your bottom line, while it might be all the rage these days, can be pretty self-defeating in the long-term. Big companies generally know this, and can afford it.
