> a show stopper for many applications

It's really not.

There's a very small set of applications where the precision of AVX512, but more cores also speeds them up.

A much more important set of applications is those sped up with GPUs or other ML accelerators. Notably the high performance of these CPUs is useful with those too, because they are great at data pipeline crunching prior to the GPU part.
