That's not what I'm getting at. What I'm getting at is that to say that "even if Apple goes 100% M1, there's the other 85% of the market that Intel is likely far more concerned about." is somewhat far-fetched. Apple can make their own desktop chips because it's an easier problem than making a phone chip (performance/thermal efficiency), but Intel can't make because they've sacrificed thermal efficiency time and time again -- not just this time but a decade ago. Remember Prescott?
I think that is why Intel should be (and probably is) worried about Apple. They will make Intel redundant by having solved a harder problem which their own problem becomes a subset of.
