yes, the stagger of CPU1 behind CPU0 has a few factors:
HS devices with an older PPA release has a bug where caches can be
messed up and GP devices
need slightly different WA. with the older PPA, we put CPU1 back to
OFF when we detect that CPU0 is not ready for action
you can find the details and documentation in the link below:
