Fair enough - I think there were a lot of teething issues with the recent amd laptops due to lack of kernel support and some bugs in the s3 bios implementation. I probably would have been similarly frustrated if I bought 9 months ago. Fortunately the bios bugs are fixed and the latest kernel (5.15.11) supports s3 pretty flawlessly so far, although I was using traditional suspend before that without issue. I haven’t had any other issues and has been stable over the last month of usage. Temps and performance are great and around 9-10 hrs battery life. So I think it's worth buying now.
