As in: the 1.5nm or 1.8nm GPUs will use less power and therefore can actually be plugged in.

We are power constrained. The GPUs of this generation can't even be plugged in yet because of these power constraints.

When power is a problem, getting lower power GPUs in is a priority. The 1.8nm and 1.5nm next generation is already in production, and will likely launch before these massive GPU stockpiles are used.

And then what? Why plug in last generations crap when the next generation is shipping?

Todays GPUs have to actually launch and be deployed while they are useful. Otherwise they could fully be obsolete and lose significant value.
