Maybe - they may not have been able to package it. Workloads are usually CPU bound or memory bound. If I need 200 cores to get a TB of memory, that’s a waste of money.

Intel segmented their products because they had the similar constraints. There’s a mondo-expensive 8 core 4 GHz+ part, and a part with lots of cores at half the speed. In Intels case, the memory is of course not part of the SoC.
