It comes around to what I said about chip developer/designer INTENT.
Q: How many threads did the developers of the Intel chip with 4 hyperthreaded cores plan to optimally service?
Q: How many threads did the developers of the 8 core AMD chip, comprised of 4 cores, plan to optimally service?
In both cases the number of cores (or modules) is not as important as the number of threads the designer planned to support.
