But the gains they made have surely outweighed any current hit? Also I haven’t perceived that much of a hit (although I’m not in the industry): are they selling more CPUs? AMD have an opportunity, but I haven’t seen that translated into sales to hyperscalers or consumers (beyond what they were achieving anyway).
Same as Microsoft knowingly for decades chose functionality before security - with the cooperation of plenty of customers that knew better.
