> The JWST ICDH team delivered the SpaceWire technology – which is packaged in a digital, low power (1.5W), high speed (66Mbps) Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) computer chip

The concepts of "low power" and "high speed" has changed a lot since JWST was designed.

I think you're forgetting to factor in the distance.

Say, a low-power, high-speed interface which is USB 3.2 only works via good copper cables and at distances of a few meters.

Indeed.Given that the design process started almost 25 years ago, I'd be more surprised if it had changed less than it has.
