I'm not missing them. One thing is a

significant barrier

and another is legal monopoly.

Especially abominations like patenting an ISA. It's clear from the very beginning that an ISA is not an invention moving humanity forward, it's an interface. A language.

As of gigantic companies of today not finding replacement when they die - we would have the whole spectrum if not for IP and patent laws as they exist. For some uses MCs of 80s are sufficient. For some a desktop PC of 1993. For some a desktop PC of 1999.

I dunno why I'm writing these things, Marcus Aurelius has written many wise things, one of them is the advice not to think about things out of your control.
