Is a top 500 super computer list a good way of measuring relevancy in the future?

No, it isn't. What is a better measure is to look at businesses like what I'm building (and others), where we take on the capex/opex risk around top end AMD products and bring them to the masses through bare metal rentals. Previously, these sorts of cards were only available to the Top 500.

Yes it is, it's how cuda got it's dominance 10 years ago. Businesses don't release their source code, super computers are attached to labs and universities and have much better licenses for software, or publish papers about it.
