the vast majority of computers still aren't superscalar, much less ooo; for every i7 there are 100 cortex-m0+s, which don't even have caches. gpus aren't superscalar or ooo either, just heavily multithreaded, simt, and simd

it seems like there are cases on modern high-performance hardware where insertion sort is not better than bubble sort (cf. https://blog.reverberate.org/2020/05/29/hoares-rebuttal-bubb...) which is very surprising to me
