With a motherboard bought with a Ryzen 1200 quad-core you could upgrade to a Ryzen 3900 12-core. In the same time frame you would have had two or three Intel sockets and chipsets.

And that's why I described my use case - as each chipset pretty much maps to an Intel generation, two or three different Intel generations doesn't provide a compelling reason to upgrade. Again, Ryzen is different, but that's largely because they've been fighting to gain parity with Intel.
