fair enough.
my point is that these sorts of issues happen to non apple hardware all the time. e.g. https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2023/08/data-leaking-downfall-bug-affects-six-generations-of-intel-pc-and-server-cpus/
many people seem to believe that simply running linux will protect them from such vulnerabilities.
this is a major oversight. one worth acknowledging and correcting, in my view.
