True. But that’s really just another way of saying “at worst, ACPI can still require a small amount of the work that is always required for ARM hardware” if you squint and look at it from a glass-half-full perspective!

At the same time though, there is argument to be had for “we wrote a device tree, therefore it works” versus “it 95% works, good enough, so nobody’s going to fix the rest anytime soon.” ARM is attempting to fix this with a certification program called SystemReady SR; but it’s optional and hasn’t caught on outside of servers.
