Meaningful use in a particular market != meaningful use in all markets.

AVX2/AVX-512 is great in HPC workloads, for example. But nobody is running an HPC workload on a 7w netbook, now are they?

What is useful on Xeon and what is useful on Atom are different. This is an Atom-class SoC used in Atom-class applications, not a Xeon-class one.

That doesn't address what I said at all. This is about extensions that are in this Atom-class SoC.
