Why would anybody be interested in a CPU version of Kangaroo now that Moore's Law has basically died out and NVIDIA RTX gpus are getting ever faster?

My CPU implementation produces on an i7-13700f the same performance as my GTX 1080 with JLP's code. CPUs are way more popular, and thus we can use many more computers if we focus on the CPUs and get better outcome.

I have a version from here:
