Forgive my own stupidity on the subject, but what's the difference between PowerPC as implemented in the PowerMacs of yore, and this "Power9" thing you mention? I assume there *are* differences? I haven't really paid that stuff attention (mostly because I didn't think it was worth it!) in well over a decade.
...although, that does sound like it's got some promise to it...
