Isn’t that also because said enthusiasts tend to use massive coolers and monitor temperatures to keep their cpus as cool as possible?
I know that I for one would never let a cpu on my desktop get over 80 degrees, but it’s common for laptops to go to 100.

From a follow on article, "The biggest factor is heat. “Higher speeds tends to produce higher temperatures and temperature is the biggest killer,” says Rita Horner, senior product marketing manager for 3D-IC at Synopsys. “Temperature exacerbates electron migration. The expected life can exponentially change from a tiny delta in temperature.”" https://semiengineering.com/aging-problems-at-5nm-and-below/ https://semiengineering.com/aging-problems-at-5nm-and-below/
