The issue with that design is that the PCIe standard would be replaced with something proprietary.

It would be connected via Infinity Fabric, just like Epyc CPUs in dual-socket boards, as well as the interconnect between CPU and GPU chiplets in APUs, already are. Why would that be bad?

I'm not too well-versed with server-grade hardware but my concern is that it would end up somewhat like Intel's (consumer) CPU sockets: Changing every 2 years to ensure you need to purchase new motherboards when upgrading.
