The additional L3 is per chiplet, so you're still going to have to talk to other chiplets and their L3. Latency numbers would be good to see. This is definitely better than eDRAM L4 on the I/O die, and that's still something they could do, so props for that.
The power cost will really determine if we see this in Laptops or not though.

You will sometimes, but traffic that still overflows to the other chiplet is probably almost all traffic that would have gone to RAM before. And as a reference point, cross-chiplet L3 is about 50 nanoseconds slower than local L3. That will dwarf most things.
