Sad thing is, there was a time that I was that conversant with PC
architectures. Now, I'm <dejected>just another programmer</dejected>.

I could go into it further, but it would require some understanding of
how memory controllers and multi-processor coherency works down to at
least the logic level.

Community software is all about choice, choice of technology.
Unfortunately, too many Linux advocates port over the so-called
"choice" from the commercial software world, brand name marketing.
The result is false assumptions, failure to focus on the real
technical similarities, but loyalty to blind vendor alignments.
