That's the problem. Your average user does what with their computer?
Facebook, YouTube, types something up on Microsoft Office, checks their email, etc. My father got a hell of a deal on a laptop with an AMD A6 APU in it. It flies through everything he gives it to do, because, he uses it for tasks like I listed above.
Sure, there will always be high-end high-requirement people wanting 8k 8X antialiasing in their games and 120+ fps for their freesync monitors etc, but... probably 80 - 90% of users couldn't care less.
Even today, you could give your average user a Core 2 Duo or Core 2 Quad from 2008 and it would laugh at any tasks they gave it to do.
