I'm not saying end consumer, I mean companies who have to insure safety and reliability. That is also behind adoption of things like Rust and many other trends.

CHERI gives you that and more. But its still very new and radical, and a lot of work needs to happen all over the place to make it practical.

Once you have micro-controllers and software it makes sense in lots of niches, and then it can expand.

For example, Google OpenTitan project. There is no reason not to use Cheri if the open source core supports it.
