I'd love to see RISC-V become a huge presence, but ARM IP seems a lot more refined & hassle-free.

A bit similar to Linux/FOSS not having any decent CAD alternative to proprietary ones.

OpenSCAD is very good, having designed quite a few things using it, and FreeCAD is quite serviceable for working with legacy shapes made in other CAD software. The ecosystem has definitely improved thanks to 3D printing.
