I wonder what level of concern RISCV raises internally at ARM. Are they panicked, or just adjusting strategy in a more routine way?
It seems the moves from Western Digital would be concerning to them.
Though I suppose on the other side, there's not yet any credible/volume RISCV general purpose CPUs yet (just MCUs), so maybe they aren't yet scrambling.

Given their public reactions, I imagine they see it as an existential threat.

ARM has done an incredible job legitimizing RISC-V.
