Grinberg's article is highly technical and compares RISC-V to other ISAs like MIPS, x86 and ARM. This article is more about the freedom RISC-V offers, both in licensing, availability, flexibility and cost.

RISC-V has put enormous pricing pressure on manufacturers like MicroChip, which is now offering its AVR line of 8-bit MCUs for pennies a piece. Too bad that the 32-bit RISC-V offerings from, among others, WCH are far more powerful at a similar price point.
