> Thanks to emulation, x86 software lock in is no more, and the moat loses its significance. Tell me you've never attempted to performantly emulate x86 without saying those words. As a small example, go look into the difference between x86 memory model and the weak memory models used by modern architectures, when it comes to ordering of accesses as seen by other cores. Now imagine emulating this correctly on a weak memory model system
