There's definitely both "established best practices" and many other legacy ways to do things on x86.
RISC-V is quite boring, majorly opting for well-proven approaches. And a lot of its technical value comes from doing just that.
Yet x86-64 and ARM would have a hard time justifying their complexity, when RISC-V achieves the same with simplicity, and matches or beats them on objective metrics[0].
