To be fair the RPi 4 8 GB with a UAS disk is getting pretty good: https://rwmj.wordpress.com/2020/09/24/raspberry-pi-4-running... I use it for Arm development.

Oh, well I guess you can use it as a development board - granted. Never occurred to me.

Although I would expect better debugging interfaces, less hacky hardware setup, a reasonable boot-loader, etc. Some things improved over the generations, true.

It's a lot cheaper than getting everyone Cavium ThunderX2's :-)
