I understand chip binning and validation, the bad idea comes from the fact of why bother to buy a 5800X3D when you can buy a 5700X3D? As for the validation argue you made my initial point for me. They have a bunch of chips that failed to hit certain requirements, been sitting on them and now need to dump them so here we go. Might want to read my entire post and look at what I am saying before jumping to an assumption.
