They have a balancing act to perform. It will take time to engineer the high end versions of M2 and they can’t afford to eclipse the current high end M1 machines. Anyway it seems likely the engineering tradeoffs made in the overall M* architecture will be with us for several years to come at least, and the first few generations will be incremental improvements.
