This seems to be pedantic at best. They are using their own silicon with the ARM instruction set. So ARM.
What's Apple solution to this problem? Do they design their chips to be redundant (e.g. an 8 core chip is actually designed with 10 cores)? Are they willing to take the loss from binning lower grade chips (take advantage of their high profit margins)? Or have they achieved adequate yield of high grade chips, that this loss is really a non-issue?
