For me is somewhere in the middle...
My opinion and assumption according what I am seeing getting past (downwards) that 14~12nm process and what Im hearing and reading across the net.
Clockspeeds are not irrelevant today. Most mainstream and some pro software is build from years to now upon the clockspeed/IPC gains of CPUs mostly. Developers did not bother too much to utilize the wider resources (cores/threads) because its way easier to use clockspeed.
The have been lazy the past decade because CPUs kept increasing clock speed significantly along and over IPC. The have been sleeping on the job...
I believe this was an era that is soon to be over. Intel gasps the last breaths of clocks increases. I bet her next all new arch is a more AMD like. Clockspeed cannot increase infinitely, especially at those processes of 7nm >> 5nm >> 3nm... It just cant happen without significant leaks (EMI).
Developers will eventually adopt the multi core/threaded resources or go home because there is a wall coming and is coming fast... When Intel drops the clockspeed hunt... after 2020...
