At least by US standards, cellular service is about as free a market for a utility as we have. If you need to be on Verizon's network, you could go to Visible or another MVNO. If not, there's ATT and T-Mo and all of their MVNOs as

Yep this is how it works, Rosetta has supported it since day 1 (for both 32- and 64-bit Intel code, important since The Sims is a 32-but app)

“Cheaper” including the NRE, and having to dedicate (very limited) chip design resources to it? For such a low volume product, probably not.

If you want to allow people to build curl using various different compilers (and old versions of them) on Windows, it needs to support all their libc’s. And at runtime, libcurl could find itself using a different libc from the application,

macOS Ventura has moved some lesser-used file systems (FAT, exFAT) out of the kernel to user-space, I believe using a private framework developed for iOS (when that added USB mass-storage support). Hopefully they’ll open those APIs up for 3
