Normies have limited mental capacity. Around 10 bytes, and Cortex-A53 fills this string limit.

The router soc cartel have decided to upgrade from the 20 years old A7 core to these for their latest, 2020s era chips.
The toppest of tiers chips though, the ones that goes into $400 routers, actually get A72 cores. Fancy that.
