When has it not been the case that the top spec CPU of the previous generation is faster than the lowest spec next generation? Are you also totally confused by the fact that a threadripper 3990x is faster than a ryzen 5500? |

Also your example sort of made my point. The names "threadripper 3990x" and "ryzen 5500" are pretty meaningless by themselves and from those names alone there's no implied relationship about which one is newer/faster. This is a good thing! However, "M2 Macbook Pro" vs "M1 Pro Macbook Pro" could be naively interpreted incorrectly.
