> Keccak won the SHA-3 competition, and became the FIPS 202 standard on August 5, 2015. All the other contenders lost.

I don't think many professionals would agree with this view of cryptographic competitions.

> Being too late to take part in the fight to become SHA-3, it just stood on its own awkwardly.

Again with the wording... SHA-3 is not an epic battle for blood and honour. Acting as if a NIST competition is a public fight is rather disconcerting.

> It is only in 2013 that SHA-2 joined Intel's set of instructions, along with SHA-1...

Technically true, but only now -- four years later -- desktop processors were released supporting the SHA extensions, and none of these are from Intel so far.
