Is it aarch64 or Arm64?! Why are we so inconsistent?

  Well if you believe the ARM people, these are not the same thing.

    Ah AArch64 is official name from ARM https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ddi0600/ac https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ddi0600/ac Interesting. I thought it was Apple name.

  it seems apple used arm64 with their chips, but most linux refers to aarch64. Maybe it's because arm64 has a trademarked name and apple is part of that? aarch64 doesn't use directly use ARM in the name.
