Well at the same time, you don't release a slide when you don't know if you're going to end up doing something, yeah.
It's very possible that 7nm was progressing faster than expected, and AMD decided to test it out with Vega.

"if my thinking is spot on"
That's one big if you've got there.

 The transistors are produced by TSMC or GlobalFoundries, not AMD/Nvidia. So i give it " higly unlikely" label.  More over, the latest AMD 14nm FinFet was co-produced by GF with Samsung to lower the costs., because more plants needed.

Not so fast, bro.

Sure, there is a big if here, but there is also the ground to defend my prediction.
