Oh wow! Could you please share what processors are exponentially faster than those of 10 years ago? I'm not seeing any here: https://www.cpubenchmark.net
Macbook Airs have 20 billion+ transistors, compared to 50 million on the Pentium 4 in the early 2000s. Moore's law is about transistor density, not processor speed, which is gated by thermal limits.
Transistor count has consistently been increasing by about 10% a year over the last decade.
