Well, there were some rumors for a while stating that Zen4 was PCIe 4.0 only but, between that roadmap and the rumor of RDNA3 cards supporting PCIe 5.0, they can be put to rest.

I wouldn't bet on Phoenix being more efficient than Apple's chip, but we've seen that they are better all around performers and I doubt that will change soon.
Oh, and since AMD says that Dragon Range will have a higher core and thread count than any other "mobile gaming CPU", that means that there will be a 16 Zen4 mobile processor to beat Intel's 12900HK with 8+6 cores/24 threads.

Apple has the advantage of being vertically integrated, so they can dedicate silicon to hardware accelerate very specific tasks in otherwise general purpose processors... Thus Apple should always have a performance advantage.

I thought something was off myself, but I didn't want to double-check. I should have, as it seems...

It's quite confusing, specially when they launch so close in time.

In any case, I agree that the lack of laptops with AMD's 6000 series CPUs is very unfortunate, wheter that's from DDR5 or not.

Agreed. My Ryzen 2700u Notebook needs to be replaced.
My Ryzen 4700u Notebook still seems to be hanging in there.

Just waiting for DDR5 notebooks so the integrated graphics isn't being choked.
