You've proven that SMT4 Zen3 will have SMT2 mode too. Nothing else as far as I remember. Even Mark Papermaster at interview didn't deny SMT4 when redactor asked direct question about Zen3 and SMT4. I wonder why he didn't say "there is no SMT4 in Zen3 as you saw in the presentation slide back in August 19". He could say that without any damage but he didn't. He let the SMT4 possibility open for some reason....
Some people are fighting against such a cool feature as SMT4 so hard that it looks like they are AMD employees trying to keep it secret until Zen3's launch day
BTW: The K12 and Zen3 code-morphing core was meant as joke/wild speculation even it would be possible in theory. These days it's pretty hard to encourage people to turn on and use the most powerfull graphic card on the world - human imagination. It looks like everybody would be happy with 4xALU, SMT2 CPU and 3% yearly IPC increase forever. No wonder a lot of people has such a hard time with Apple's 6xALU monster core like A13. We'll se in two months if Zen3 is SMT4 or not
