Again:
- SPARC is not designed for embedded devices.
- ARM is not free. Lots of people dont mind about freedom, and it's ok. But I do. (Note that most people dont mind about Linux either. It's also ok, but if we were all thinking the same way, we would never had Linux or xxxBSD in this current state)
- MIPS ISA wasn't open source until December 2018. Maybe we wouldn't talk about RISC-V hype if MIPS ISA was open sourced earlier
- I dont know about POWER. Maybe it didn't get the attention it deserved.
As you said I'm fan about RISC-V, but in fact I am more fan about open hardware. If we can have it with ARM, POWER or MIPS, then it'ok for me. I will be happy.
Maybe you are right, maybe RISC-V is over-hyped. But maybe it will succeed because of this over-hype ? Maybe it will fail ?
I don't know, but I'm pretty sure that one day we will get open hardware with open CPU.
