They weren't even that slow. Seven years ago they didn't win in __single threaded__ applications, but for any multi-threaded workload they were great.

How is that not equivalent to "they were so much cheaper that you could get more of them"? Hardly what I'd call architectural success.

It isn't always obvious for future workloads whether scaling out vs. scaling up will win.

And even when it is obvious for particular workloads, the relative value and demand of various future workloads is definitely non-obvious.
