There's not reason why Intel couldn't, but they don't have the incentive to hyper-optimize frequently used Apple workloads like Final Cut Pro.

If Intel could they would, for years now they’ve been spending billions to get fraction of a pc improvements on benchmarks. You really think if they could increase die size by 10% and get 30% better perfs they’d say no? Come on.

Except M1’s performance improvements show up across the board including software which has no relation to Apple, so this is just complete nonsense.
