Harsh. Maybe more like “a competitor who made enough money elsewhere to get into the CPU fight”. Barriers to entry in that market are gargantuan, only a very selected few companies on the planet can afford to make an enemy out of Intel.

Apple has been on the CPU fight for years now - It's just that Intel, like IBM before them, couldn't provide a CPU with the performance/watt they wanted for their macOS lineup.
The developer preview Minis they sold with an iPad Pro CPU were already well past midrange Intel desktop chips.
