But it could exist right? For instance, what if MS created an ARM variant with special instructions to accelerate C# garbage collection? You could imagine a world where vertical integration throughout the entire stack leads to software which kind of works everywhere, but only really gives a good experience on 1st party hardware.

I'm no expert but put too many extensions in there and you're looking less like RISC and more like CISC. It would make more sense on x86 platforms.
