> It doesn’t

Saying "no" doesn't magically remove your contradiction. E cores didn't exist in laptop/PC/server CPUs before 2022 and using HT was a decent way to increase capacity to handle many (e.g. IO) threads without expensive context switches. I'm not saying E cores are a bad solution, but somehow you're trying to erase historical context of HT (or more likely just sloppy writing which you don't want to admit).

I’ve explained what I meant. You’ve interjected your own interpretation of my comment and then gotten huffy about it.

We could politely discuss it or you can continue being rude by making accusations of sloppy writing and denials.

No, you haven't explained the contradiction, you just talk over it. Before E cores were a thing, HT was a decent approach to cheaply support more low utilization threads.
