I think they market those fp64 things for the simulation market, which is basically pretty much every supercomputer's mission (I'm simplifying). The A100 also has specific silicium for fp64 (so called dp tensor cores) that you can't find in lower end datacenter stuff.
FP64 really stings even on (e.g) mid-end nvidia hw, what with the 1:32 handbrake. https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-c-programming-guide/index.html#arithmetic-instructions__throughput-native-arithmetic-instructions https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-c-programming-guide/index.... for reference
