Eh I don't know.
Tensor G3 is made on Samsung 4LPP and they borked the CPU efficiency:

Maybe the enhanced process is 4lpp+
How much of that is design vs. node? LPP is two years old, and 4nm gen 3 is supposed to significantly reduce power.
Samsung's SF4X process technology promises to deliver a 10% improvement in performance along with a 23% reduction in power consumption. While Samsung has not disclosed the baseline for this comparison, it is likely in reference to their standard SF4 (4LPP) proces.
