I don't like that. With a factory bios, you expect the correct
microcode update for your CPU to be present, no matter what CPU you
put in a socket.

note that on V3, we have the neat ability to put microcode in LAR, and
find it there on boot.
So we might have another top level directory: /microcode
And then you can figure out, long after the bios is built, which
microcode updates you want to support.

Do you see any way to solve the size problem for sockets with too many
different cores?
Not sure what you mean? How many different cores could you put in even
