Although likely to be way off the point, I'm reminded of the poor image that electric cars had before Tesla - that they were basically revved up golf carts. Someone needs to find a "tesla of risc-v chips" that's insanely fast, even if its a premium price. Once the image is shaken, we can move into commodity chips. But I guess we have the (slow) golf cart for now.
