I disagree. AMD did the world a favour by going with the Threadripper brand name instead of the lazy path of mindlessly bumping a number and tagging another brand. The different socket alone is a clear and unambiguous reason to go with a distinct brand, but the clear bet on maxing out memory channels and PCI lanes at the expense of far higher power consumption makes them an entirely different product targetted at an entirely different market segment.
