There is lots of embedded that uses x86 or arm. Lots of embedded isn't significantly power or size constrained and volumes are very low so software development costs dominate over hardware costs.

But agreed, those aren't the point of the article.

"Embedded" is a big space.

Something that is not power nor size constrained doesn't really fit most people's definition of "Embedded."

Example: the computer in a CNC machine.
