ARM isn't the x86 solution people like it to be. It's at least as proprietary as x86 and the fact that it's more widely licenced today than x86 is a happy coincidence. ARM licensing can dry up with a change in corporate leadership or a takeover by one of a myriad large corporations. A solution worth cheering would be a good enough open RISC-V core.
