Thanks for the additional details.

The scariest part of this whole problem is there is no way for the owners of i13/14 CPU to figure out to what extent the CPU is damaged. It's like holding a ticking bomb without knowing when that will go off!

100%. Whatever Intel does at this point, I don't trust it to be a fix so much as a mitigation or attempt to delay the inevitable until a few years after the warranty period.

If it's possible for people to return their 13th/14th gen processor and trade up for a 12th gen, that would be the safest solution.
