That is what surprises me with this announcement: we moved a while ago from a more powerful, limited number of cores to smaller, more numerous, and less consuming cores. Power consumption increases to the square of the frequency of the processor, so what is the advantage of moving away from that model?
Headlines.

It is P4 vs Athlon all over again.
Didn’t we see something similar in the fx days, with amd being the loser?
Intel adopted a fast release cycle after the Netburst P4 days. They were able to stay dominant until they dumped that strategy in like 2017.
