Intel was making its own ARM chips called Xscale 20 years ago, no?

Indeed and XScale was successor to StrongARM which I think was highest performing Arm design for a while.

Sold to Marvell in 2006 right before the iPhone appeared.

Intel then spent billions trying to make x86 commercially viable on mobile.
