I'm missing comparison of FL2 on Gen13 vs Gen12, since this would be a real win (or loss?) from the hardware upgrade. How can they justify the upgrade without this data?

Good to know, thanks!

Taken from bookmarks, haven't noticed this before. Looking forward for the article update.

Perhaps it's obvious but I'm missing some (briefly) justification why FlatBuffers was better, not Protobuf/Capnproto/...
