The better the CPU is, the better it's going to be at the algorithm. But I-9s can be purchased by regular human beings too. And they are just CPUs. So again, a government doesn't know whether you are buying an I-9 to mine Monero, or if you are buying an I-9 to render video. An Asik is a very, very specialized piece of hardware that only does one thing well, and since they are all made in China, their import could be very easily curtailed. In order to stop Monero mining, what are you going to do, ban CPUs?
