At least in my house, ARM cores outnumber x86 cores by at least four to one. And I'm not even counting the 32-bit ARM cores in embedded devices. There is a lot of space for memory ordering bugs to manifest in all those devices.

The number of cores is fairly similar actually. X86 has been commonly 2 or 4 core for decades, and ARM is only recently more than that.
