Let’s say yes for argument sake, what about 2012, 2013, 2014,2015, 2016. Bulldozer is kinda of modular, AMD can cut and paste modules according to the segment, server, desktop, mobile, k10 doesn't allow that. Bulldozer is future proof, K10 isn't, increasing thread count with Bulldozer design it’s a lot easier and doable than K10, and so on and so on… Sorry to say bu AMD makes server cpu's, even the beloved K8 was designed for servers.
now there might be issues with k10 on 32nm but a lot less then what bulldozer is having...its pretty straightforward you have a working tech shrink it, increase clocks, add some new features have a much better product, keep bulldozer arch back until its perfected a bit better and actually beats something..i think this approach would of been a lot better and probably could of had a release a lot earlier with a more competing product..

sort of like amd's 4-5-6 series..shrink it increase speed add features and the product keeps producing while becoming more efficient.
