Agreed. We did have a case where something gradually changed
instead of changing ODMs entirely:

Apple A4 was mostly an Exynos-family chip but A18 is not.
If Axis turns into the next Apple and ARTPEC-23 is far enough
removed from ARTPEC-9 to no longer fit into the same family
as Exynos/Tensor/FSD, we can still reconsider the decision
in a decade.
