>cannot get this system to idle below 80W

You can't do anything about it. It's a limitation of your Ryzen's chiplets based design where the ineficient IO die sucks a lot of power leading to poor idle efficiency.

Intel chips, Ryzen laptop chips and the new G chips like the one in the article don't have such issues because they're a monolithic die.
