The dependency comes from pushing the physical limits until the abstraction leaks. Older memory technologies were not vulnerable to rowhammer. But they were also a lot slower.

Is this unreliability being driven by newer DRAM being faster, or by newer DRAM being denser?
Denser & lower voltage
That's it, we're going back to core memory.
If you thought "cold boot attacks" were a problem with DDR, using memory that still holds data 50 years later might be an issue.

Core memory has temperature issues.
