I can definitely see his argument, although I still do believe RISC-V did a lot of things better than x86...
I really do hope that the arch is eventually able to fix this. Better that there be an open ISA than them all be closed IMO.

Such as? I can't think of anything it does better for high performance cores.
Yeah...risc-v can learn from 50 years of x86 (among others). And yet.......
He has good points, except he misses the goal posts completely.
Better than x86 is a low bar when ARMv8 exists.
