Am I missing something?
However, next gen (EPYC 7004) looks MUCH more promising.

Doesn’t Intel do the same? Their roadmaps indicate multiple generations of launches. They’ve also talked about parallel development of 10nm and 7nm processes, for example, and many years of parallel development on technologies like 3D fabrication and silicon photonics.
