10nm Intel CPUs exist. I have seen them with my own eyes. Reading the tea leaves from public statements and articles like that, the yields seem to be crap right now.

I am typing this reply from a Lenovo Thinkbook 14-IIL, that has a 10nm CPU, also known by its codename Ice Lake. It's not a desktop CPU, it's a mobile CPU, but it's enough to counter your claim that "Intel doesn't yet have 10nm".
