I'm surprised that many people don't realize that Optane to SSD for consumer computers is similar to SSD to HDD. Consumer computers don't run workloads with QD 32. Their workloads are overwhelmingly low-threaded, so random performance for low queue depths is what matters. And Optane beats even best SSDs by a large margin.
I guess that modern SSD are just so fast, that going faster is not that big deal. But if you want the best SSD for non-server workloads, Optane is a way to go.
