Well, it's more like people celebrating an electric scooter that has twice the range of the electric bike.

Not saying it isn't a novel form of transport or equally useful in most cases, but... we're comparing a very stripped-down SoC to systems that have vastly more complexity for several different reasons - not least the ability to support more modular CPU/memory/GPU configurations.

Rework the existing x86 cores that we have into similar configurations and we'll likely see pretty substantial efficiency gains there too.
