> The point stands that virtually no apps used AMX (either directly or through a framework).
AMX has been present in every M series chip and the A series chips starting with the A13. If you are comparing M series chip scores in Geekbench 6 they are all using it, not just the latest ones.
Any app using Apple's Accelerate framework will take advantage of it.

This isn’t true, I don’t believe GeekBench ever made use of AMX. They do use SME on any Arm-based platform that has it, which up until extremely recently has only been Apple.
