It rather should be for general computing too starting with government office computers.

Yeah they'll be slow but nothing can be slower than an x86 loaded with a Windows 11 or something on it.

Also, even a 10 year old x86 system is fine for web browsing and office tasks. If RISC-V hit that level, it’d be fine for many millions of people.

That's going to be hard to beat, yes..

Problem is in most schools here you only learn word-processing/data-entry on Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Office...

So youd have to convince a lot of people to learn other tools
