There are almost certainly more MIPS chips in the world than x86.
Saying "you can have big-endian in your ISA, but we won't be supporting it" is very different from railing on about the ISA having big-endian at all.

Is that so? I know that MIPS used to be very popular for embedded devices, especially routers and switches, but it seems that everything has moved to ARM.
