Why is it still called SIMD-accelerated, if these are now just normal instructions. You just have to take a little bit more effort into restructuring your algorithms to make use of them.

How does using instructions that operate on multiple data elements, which make your software 3 times faster, not fit the definition of SIMD-accelerated?
