I agree again.I respect that not everyone likes Win 11, but 11 in 2023 is very different from the absolute animal that launched in fall 2021. If you're willing to be a bit of a power user there are tools like NTLite that you can use to bend 11 to your liking.
At the end of the day I don't see not having the X3D optimizations as a big deal.
7800X3D is the everyman's SKU, and requires none of these novel scheduling tricks - it's just a new 5800X3D.
The hardships that come with 7900X3D/7950X3D are the result of wanting to have your cake and eat it too (Vcache + more cores). Not wanting to lose to Intel in any metric at the top end.
For people benching all-core, the 7950X is probably still going to walk all over those two, 16 cores that aren't hobbled by a silicon insulator. And for pushing DDR5 clock, it's still the 1CCD parts that will lead. I hope the AGESA team gets their shit together but I don't see the 2CCD Vcache parts being anything other than a hassle.

To be fair, the only target audience I can imagine for the 7900/7950X3D is people who game and work at the same time, which is not many, I suppose.
Some of us are used to chasing the highest of the high-end for gaming, which isn't only unnecessary, but also counter-productive ever since AMD's chiplets and Intel's E-cores arrived.
The old belief that usefulness and price are correlated needs to change to buying parts that are fit for purpose. 1 CCD for gaming, 2 CCDs for work.
I'll have a look at NTLite, thanks.
