There's a Gamers Nexus piece that goes into the tricking truth, stalling and memory holing of old press releases of Intel throughout this whole thing and it is actually quite ridiculous and galling. The 65watt thing people mentioned is just the latest party line, before those were definitely not susceptible according to Intel. I wouldn't surprised if this changed again at some point. My read is they know all the chips are screwed and should do a recall but literally do not have enough stock for replacements and obviously don't want to take the hit. That's why they're giving people trying to RMA a runaround as well, they likely are prioritizing their big OEM customers over retail purchasers.
