I was replying more to the idea there's all this costly legacy IO.
I guess you aren't the first to try different geometries or power delivery or cabling either. There's been lots of little opencompute-type efforts and startups come and go. I'm skeptical there's a lot in it in a significant niche that does not already do these things, but you don't need to convince me. Although if you did want to you could show some comparative density numbers. What can you fit, 2048 cores, 32TB, and push 15kW through a rack?
