So for peak load, it’s an upgrade compared to the previous generation MacBook Air. But for sustained load, it seems to actually be a downgrade, as the previous gen still had processors of the U series.

I am sorry, with previous generation I meant the non-retina version of 2016, which indeed had U processors.
