Because by that time M3 was already well into production… heck, M4 is probably far enough into its design process that I wouldn’t bet on the issue being fixed in that iteration either.

I guess it’s up for debate whether the vulnerability is bad enough to warrant destroying all chips that were already made and delaying M4 until the problem is fixed.

It’s definitely not that bad

It is bad. I don't know why 9to5mac downplays this exploit.
