It's really unfortunate they kinda screwed over threadripper customers so bad in this way, but they're still the lesser evil by a country mile.

It's been their MO for a long time to keep using the same chipset for as long as possible, if they stop then stop giving either money and just don't upgrade, not that it really matters with the diminishing return each generation.
