    CPUs can definitely do more variety.

    My point was just that the whole purpose of them is that they do a better job at the embarrassingly parallel operations they’re made for. Obviously architectures evolve over time, and the exact details change, but if you were attempting to stifle growth, something that adds significant capability to user’s machines (and also without actually compromising the capability of the actual CPU, for the most part) doesn’t seem like it would help you.

      Ah, yes - exactly! The article is also fully unrelated from OPs title - really weird post all around.
