Large portions of the Nuvia team were ex Apple A- and M-series silicon designers and builders, presumably the Snapdragon X Elite used some of the cross pollinated ideas originating from apple silicon.

Maybe not exact duplicate, but the ideas cross polinated.

I think the same applies to ARM's newer designs as well, with ARM Blackhawk and Cortex-X series achieving similar results as Nuvia's design.

My guess is that the work Nuvia did happened in close exchange with ARM, with each party owning their respective IP for commercialization (ARM for new generic designs, Nuvia for new server-centric designs).
