Are we going to give up GPUs, virtualization extensions, SGX enclaves, memory barriers, upcoming AI-acceleration, etc? To my knowledge, there is no software concept that will performantly render these functional units obsolete.

If we keep the chip features, the OS will have to wrap them in one way or another.

edit: my personal preference would be to go full-Terry, but I know that's a pipe dream.
