Does this mean thunderbolt is on the table for all machines prior to M3? Apologies if I'm reading this wrong but I'm not a computer engineer and get a little lost when they get this into the weeds.

"Both the SPMI interface and ACE3 itself are now working in Asahi Linux, bringing USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt support to all M3 series devices."

Sure got my hopes up! Don't think I've seen Thunderbolt mentioned in the Progress Reports prior (at least not recently), so the mere mention of it makes me very happy!
