A  compromise makes sense then. Because on one hand you do not need 
compatibility with CPUs that you don’t have because they’re 10 years old, vs 
you’re not recompiling every application with the highest optimizations to use 
the latest greatest instructions…so…using whatever it detects is usually the 
best choice:)
