The old "anyone who disagrees with my world view is being bought" argument.

M series gains aren't just to do with the node. It's also because of the unified memory architecture and most importantly the fact that custom silicon e.g. Neural Engine is taken advantage of through the OS and SDKs.

That's true, given that the M-series gains are exclusively against Intel chips and are less performant than comparable AMD chips, upon which Apple's memory architecture is based.
