Ya, part of the reason I presumed there would be at least one rev was because there have been reports of system hangs and restarts on some M1 machines.
So I had thought there may be something learned in the mass deployment that would trigger even minor design changes.
Perhaps those are software issues. Or maybe the M1 as a product name should not be taken literally to describe the SoC in the current lineup.
We know the Secure Enclave component appears to have been updated mid-production this past fall for a host of A-series chips.
Perhaps, if light changes were needed Apple would not see them a sufficient to designate a new moniker.
Or perhaps they are but the iMac and (theoretical) apple silicon-based data centers are intending to build consumer confidence in this bold foray.
