I guess I don't understand why people feel better being able to build a firmware image which will boot the CPU in a broken mode.
I have no idea either. However, what I do have is chronic fatigue from hearing clueless people complain and moan about having microcode in their coreboot.
I want my time with the coreboot community to be fun. I like talking about silly mistakes that cost me hours or days. I like being made fun of when that happens. I like doing fun stuff. I like playing with hardware. I do NOT like litter from useless philosophical discussions about which blob is more acceptable than the other.
I spend a few weeks now completing the change, and in exchange, I get a lifetime of peace on the matter. We all do. It's a win-win. The change will be mostly transparent to the average coreboot user.
What's there not to like?
