Not completely baffling. Intel made an attempt to create a Transmeta like hybrid software/hardware architecture at the time on one of their "VLIW" processors. It was an expensive experiment that didn't work out.

The i860 I think originally had a mode. But they then went ahead and doubled down on Itanium.
