Rpi is not always such a gold standard either.. is their boot chain still a mess? That was one of the problems with zero 2w

All of the boot chain is a mess because the Pi 1 used a bucket load of unused Broadcom set-top-box SoCs which were GPUs with a tiny ARM core along for the ride. Every Pi boots off the GPU first.
