I wouldn't say it's anything groundbreaking (phones have been doing this for 10 years now and Intel wasn't the first to introduce it to laptops/desktops the M1 was) but it's not a gimmick either. Intel 12th gen is just not a very efficient design and they lost their node advantage. Without efficiency cores the story would be just be "very bad" instead of "bad".
