> ARM is really old now.
Well aarch64 was announced in 2011 so not really that old.
> Apple’s implementation of ARM is decidedly CISC.
CISC is a description of the instruction set not the implementation.
> ARM doesn’t scale.
No idea what this means but you can get 128 core Arm CPUs and address huge amounts of memory but perhaps you have another definition of scaling.
And so on.
