I liked the part when they appeal to "independent research" and then mention the same crap paper that every Intel fanboy mentions. I still recall the first time that I did read the paper by Blem, Menon, and Sankaralingam. After my initial perplexity on how almost any decision they took (from hardware to compiler version) seemed orientated to favor x86 over ARM, I did search further info about the senior author and found that one of the coworkers of his research team is an Intel lab guy, that several students in his group are awarded Intel grants... LOL
