Unfortunately the specs do not mention important aspects, such as the HDMI version or whether the USB-C port is capable of Power Delivery and DisplayPort (and if so, the DisplayPort version).
The expected Ryzen 5000 mobile launch at CES will probably include Lucienne (aka. Renoir refresh), which is Zen2 but a drop-in replacement for Renoir. That should keep those lazy OEMs happy, at the cost of confusing buyers. Shame on AMD for that.
It's not even clear though whether Cezanne (Zen3) will launch at the same time, maybe that will come later. If I had to guess, Lucienne at CES and Cezanne/Van Gogh at Computex but that is just my baseless speculation.
System76 cannot disable Intel ME. No OEM can do that, only Intel can.
The HAP bit that some OEMs set is just asking the ME nicely to shut down itself at some point during the boot process.
