@lauralt @EscapeVelo @Forestofenchantment @mint but tbh you could see this back in the day with PPC, MIPS, Alpha, and Itanium windows boxes. Every CPU vendor seemingly wanted more control than Intel had over x86 boards and platforms back in the day and even Intel tried this with IA64 (which on one hand was designed to kill AMD and it failed badly).

Itanium was the EV of 2000s computing.
