Actually the ONLY thing that needs to be considered when wondering if a module is analogous to a hyperthreaded core is the intentions of the architects for both companies.

If they were creating their design for basically the same purpose then the designs are exactly analogous.

The questions of whether one design is more elegant or performs better or costs more are actually secondary. (And your last example means absolutely nothing; although is does display the reason Hyperthreading is not an optimal solution.)

Module design intentions: Save die space vs conventional core layout
HT design intentions: Make use of unused CPU cycles, because of stupidly long instruction pipelines
