I do not surprise, if this approach seems vague to many developers
because this is many years ahead of time.

If you can see the future, then you can see in next few years we will
get single processor with hundreds of symmetrical and asymmetrical cores
then we need to treat each core as a different system and each core will
be dedicated for specific use and task and we need different scheduling
polices for each core.

Even in embedded space, hundreds of small asymmetrical processors will
be compact into a single die to save power, space, communication and so
on.

Further more this will create healthy competition in different
schedulers. And then we can see which scheduler is best for which case.
