I think it's just as much Intel just not having competition/incentive to improve as it is Moore's Law.

Until Ryzen forced Intel to get off their asses there was very little performance improvement generation by generation in intel processors.

For example: Over 2011 - 2017 there was a ~18% (userbenchmark) improvement in the *700 i7 model.

But then Ryzen came out and the very next model (released in the same year) was already a ~23% improvement.
