AMD Zen 5 Not Affected By Inception/SRSO, mitigations=off Yields No Benefit On Ryzen 9000 Series

One of the security changes with AMD Zen 5 processors that I haven't seen AMD publicly mention at least not prominently is that the new cores are not vulnerable to Speculative Return Stack Overflow (SRSO).

My rich daddy didn't buy me a fake business degree from Warton while I avoided military service, so I'm looking forward to the Wall Street Journal's economic analysis of how "trillions" of dollars of import tariffs will be paid for by foreign companies WITHOUT raising prices on consumer goods for Americans.
