    Is this issue persistent in RISC-based processors too, like SPARC, POWER or RISC-V? Or is this a modular component that can go in with any architecture?

      I imagine it would be the same dynamic, and you could have an emulation layer on the chip with its own instruction set for legacy code while providing direct access to the native instruction set.
