This is the best quick explanation of cores and threads. And it also makes it explicitly clear why they aint as good as they could be

An example of that is my video editing suite. Video editing is probably the killer app for CPU's. If I work the socks off on mine rendering a 4k vid it maxes out CPU % and rapidly gets hot using one core
As per AMD, like you I have history from days long ago. And thats all it is - History.
Intel is really really in a hole right now, struggling to progress.
