Pretty much this. As my primary focus is scientific computing tasks, which means CPU and CUDA, I basically walked away from the Mac Pro, after using (and loving) the old metal 2012-era version.
My next workstation? Not from Apple.

In those 3 generations, AMD literally doubled the stream processors, and performance, they can get from a single chip. The GPU's lag is in a lot of ways more significant than the processor, because we've seen such sweeping changes in the past couple years.
