Sort of, but they tripled the price to take the CPU cores from 2010 (single A8) to 2012 (dual A15). I know the whole point of the BB is the real-time capabilities and the two DSP cores, but I do wish the application CPUs were faster. Now that there's compute support for the GPU in the Pi4, I wonder what the performance difference is (in AI stuff).

That's all fair. I love that the BB platform is so stable, I can design around it with reasonable confidence that my gizmo will still work in _another_ decade, which is a perspective only recently coming to the Pi world. But there are certainly sacrifices made in that approach.
