Who do you think is disallowing AMD from cutting security corners? (Not rhetorical)

No one "allowed" Intel to cut security corners. It was an oversight and took a long time to discover and understand the impact of.

Even when people started speculating (ha!) that speculative execution could be problematic it took years before they managed to exploit it.
