Good article, although not up to date with happenings within RVI.
Most remarkable is the mention of issues around C. This got extensive discussion. It turned out only Qualcomm has issues, and the rest of companies with large scale implementations are happy with C.
It was proven in these discussions that the issues Qualcomm brought up are specific to their implementation largely reusing the ARM core they obtained from Nuvia acquisition, and easy to avoid with a clean board implementation.
The board ultimately ruled against Qualcomm's proposal[0], and the world moved on. Note that every purchasable chip out there supports C, and this is unlikely to change.
