My comment was about Intel having a starter project, getting enthusiastic response from devs, network effects and iterate from there. They need a way to threaten Nvidia and just focusing on what they can't do won't bring them there. There is one route where they can disturb Nvidia's high end over time and that's a cheap basic GPU with lots of RAM. Like Ryzen 1st gen whose single core performance was two generations behind Intel trashed Intel by providing 2x as many cores for cheap.
