I don’t get why other chip manufacturers don’t go this same route. For example AVX is done on the same core that also supports integer math. Many companies have a separate GPU but AVX seems to always come prepackaged.

Qualcomm most likely will go this route (proprietary instructions) as this now officially blessed by Arm. I'd bet we'll see that in their 2023 chips.
