That... is not how CPUs work, despite Apple's promises. As mentioned, there is a need of an interconnect between those sockets. Power usage aside, it is absolute hell to get it to efficiently and quickly send data between cores. Adding a socket interconnect will destroy the performance of any task that needs to send data between those cores. So, what you're left with, is a 64 core M1. Which is still going to be less efficient than a Threadripper, an EPYC or even a Xeon (and that's quite sad) at multithreaded tasks, and, knowing Apple, about twice as expensive.
