Nobody said anything about RISC-V being "perfect" or not. The problem isn't how good RISC-V is or isn't; it's that your desire for software to target one and only one type of hardware just doesn't make any sense. That's not how computers have ever worked.

By the way, what do you mean by "PI lockfree"? Googling "ISA PI lockfree" just leads me to...another hacker news thread where you're arguing that RISC-V should replace everything.

Anyway, yes, please do "investigate how much out-of-the-box-thinking and disruptive this is" before continuing to have these inane arguments.

If you keep explicitely ignoring the core reason why RISC-V is redefining the way to "move forward", I don't know what you want me to tell you.
...okay, so what is "PI lockfree"?
