Can't speak for GP, but can say that for me, I'd been on a 4790K since launch and only recently jumped for a Zen 2 x570 setup when my old system was acting up. Waiting for a 3950X to displace the 3600 I'm using temporarily.
I've looked at generational numbers and only in the past year or two has it gotten kind of bad. Been itching to upgrade since last November, but held out for a 16c Ryzen, I wanted more Linux stability, but pulled the trigger early as I said my old system was acting up.
In the end, it's quite a jump just to an R5 3600 from the i7-4790K ... I don't know if/when I'll feel the need to upgrade again after next month.
