They want to "persuade" them to not use cheap open RISC-V cores.

RISC-V is inevitable. ARM would do well to start building IP on the architecture before they're left in the dust by SiFive and friends.

Like, right now the best RISC-V cores are already faster than the A72 core on the Pi 4. A few years before and these same companies were only competing for the microcontroller market.
