FWIW, the Steam Hardware Survey says 99.99% of users have SSE2 (under

For that to be valid, one must assume that the population of Firefox
users and Steam users are sufficiently similar. I don't think that's
necessarily true since most Steam titles have substantially higher
system requirements.
While that's a fair point, Microsoft turned compiling with SSE2 on by
default in Visual Studio in 2012, and it's been basically impossible to
buy an x86 CPU without it since... 2004 or so?
I've tapped chutten about this, and he says:
14:33 < chutten> Easy as pie. ping["environment/system/cpu/extensions"]
contains "SSE2"
14:33 < chutten> or, rather, the inverse
... which he then explained to me means "we can get our own data in
short order."
He says it'll be straightforward to pull in, so he's going to do that.
