>OK, here’s the performance. Factor of 2.2X over its peers (other laptop SKUs) in multithreaded performance, going head to head with 5950X in some (floating-point) scenarios

Finally a sensible comparison! As I said, it is quite impressive.

>it doesn’t mean low-clocked x86 magically beats A15.

Nor did I ever say it would.

What I have said is a simple truth: leading on IPC and trailing on frequency is not obviously an advantage. I don't understand what it is you think I said. Pretty much everything you are writing is a non-sequitur.

Would you please stop posting in the flamewar style to HN? I just had to warn you about this elsewhere in the thread. This is not cool.

You obviously know stuff about this topic and that's great, but the benefit of that is smaller than the damage you cause by flaming. Would you please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and stop this going forward? We'd appreciate it.
