It is, I think he ends with the possibility that with Arm being integrated into the GPU - a new possible world exists with the lack is a lack of Intel. With Linux and Windows Arm ready it could be very interesting the kind of possible system builds. For one having as many pci express lanes (or something completely different). Would be great to see a platform that is more friendly to extracting as much out of it as possible.

Wouldn't that be basically exactly the same as integrating the GPU into the CPU? This is something that AMD already does. The question is: does it have a considerable positive impact on compute workloads?. It doesn't seem like anyone is clambering for it, so I doubt it matters much. More peripheral bus bandwidth and connectors is probably all that anyone cares about.
