Realistically, there's no way every company that has high performance microarchitectures available for licensing is lying, and that the clients it already licensed the IP to are covering for them.

It is also unreasonable to think that each and every industry veteran who has designed successful, competitive high performance microarchitectures in the past and is now working on RISC-V IP is for some reason suddenly unable to deliver.

Waiting will give you confirmation, in the form of seeing your competitor's successful products in the market, but at the cost of missing your own chance.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
