But why? It was easy and recognizable.

So it can confused buyers, and they buy a lower generation for a higher price

Harder to recognise makes it easier to up-sell crappier models to those not close enough to the detail. I was mulling over going AMD with the next laptop (which admittedly won’t be any time soon), this makes me lean more towards that idea.

AMD’s new naming scheme is also horrific

Was it though? Maybe to people like us, but not to my folks.
Personally, I‘d prefer some sort of naming convention that was like Apple’s. Generation number, then some sort of Good, Better, Best name tacked on the back.
That said, the words Apple picked for Good-Better-Best are kind of stupid and not as clear as the could be.
