The 7002 seems like it could be used in a workstation, where the “cattle vs pets” thing is less of a distinction, right? (I guess a workstation is sort of like a work dog in this analogy).

That's the EPYC lineup, which is the server model. Support for terabytes of RAM, 128 PCIe lanes, that sort of thing.

I mean you could use it in a workstation, but unless you need 4 video cards locally it's probably overkill for most uses.

And a workstation should have no problem rebooting once in a while.

You have the whole "I don't understand why something is this way, therefore everyone who does understand why it's that way is wrong" stick down cold. It's not a good look.
