Apart from wire length there is also a very real problem of much more wires/pins, DDR5 has ~ 260 and HBM over 1000. You would need much more layers on your mother board and we are already at 7 (?) and much more pins on the CPU socket. This CPU has 4 HBM stacks and already 4600 pins, it would need > 8000 pins for external HBM.
