IMHO adding 'on Power Systems' leverages that brand recognitions and clarifies for the unknowing that it doesn't run on inferior technology. Given the incredible benefits we got from merging System i and System p into POWER that's worth mentioning. Do I do it every time? Of course not, mostly IBM i stands alone.

Doesn't "IBM i on POWER systems" imply either limitation "IBM i only
runs on POWER systems, nothing else", or the possibility of IBM i on
other hardware, but it's somehow different? "IBM i on AMD systems"?

Do I have to say "Windows on Intel", "Ubuntu on AMD", "Android on
Snapdragon"?

Going farther afield, "Camry on Toyota chassis", "F150 on Ford"?

Anything wrong with just "IBM i"?
