It really did.

FYI, ARM stands for Advanced RISC Machines.

And before that "Acorn RISC Machines".

We had Acorn Archimedes systems at school that ran RISC OS.

For a firm that already have their own core designs that simply use the ARM instruction set, it might be easier to adapt to RISC-V. For a firm that licenses ARM cores on the other hand...
