So AMD have done something really clever, it is not 1 big Die but rather 2 smaller (ryzen7) dies linked.
The issue with binding is the larger and more complex your die the more failures you have. But breaking it down to 2 smaller dies that are combined they reduce this since they are already getting relly good yields out of the ryzen7 dies.
Epic is just 4 ryzen7 dies. So no this is not worse bins the 16core threadripper is 2 ryzen7 cores.
