Back doors are more of a potential issue with micro-coded architectures because it’s a lot easier to embed a door in software (which at heart is what microcode is) undetectably than in hardware. It’s also easier to do in a bizarrely complicated design like OOO than one that is way simpler.

I hope we are never approached with a demand to inject something.
