In the context of the topic (could a rogue super intelligence break out), I don’t really see how that’s relevant. Clearly someone who is clever enough has an advantage at breaking out.

As for the bit about how limited it is, do you remember the Rowhammer attack? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row_hammer

This is exactly the kind of thing I’d worry about a super intelligence being able to discover about the hardware it’s on. If we’re dealing with something vastly more intelligent than us then I don’t think we’re capable of building a cell that can hold it.
