I'm writing about practicality of hybrid x86 from the consumer point of view. Reality is for gaming it would be much more practical yo have more cache instead E cores. In contrast, for heavy MT load it would be more practical to have massive amount of E cores, for example, in the same die space you could have about 40E cores instead 8P + 8E configuration used currently. Either way you pay for non-optimal use of die space FOR YOU, YOUR USE CASE, kapish? That's the idea.
