The sizing numbers are also just nonsense marketing. They stopped meaning anything in particular a long time ago. Intel's '10nm' and TSMC's '7nm' are about the same size.

The size numbers do measure something, but what they're measuring differs between manufacturers.

They aren't comparable between AMD and Intel. They absolutely are comparable between Intel and Intel.
