Granted, it's the same Phoenix 2 die, but why use a "specialty" SKU like the Z1 instead of something like the 7440U?

Similarly, I love DF. But I'm not sold on their VR headset reviews due to how little they pay attention to some of the drawbacks of a headset.
Their PSVR2 review from earlier this year didn't call any attention to how absolutely tiny the sweet spot for that headset is. If it moves even a small amount, you'll drift out of the sweet spot for the fresnel lenses and get significant chromatic aberration (or worse). It's distinctly smaller than other VR headsets and quite unforgiving, so it's something that should have been mentioned. (The fit of the headset is also rubbish for a lot of people, but I can accept that it may not have been an issue for them)
For what it's worth, we're coming off of the bottom of a bust cycle in the NAND flash space.
The OP's graphs basically capture the NAND market from the previous boom through the current bust. So from that specific perspective, SSD prices have been dropping like a rock. The only catch with that window is that it fails to capture the cyclical nature of the market - and thus fails to illustrate how SSD prices go back up.
In practice, SSD prices have hit their lowest point. They are going to rebound here until the next bust in 2-3 years.
NVIDIA alone can't. The PCI-SIG is a traditional tech industry standards grindfest; it doesn't do anything without the consent of all of the members sitting on the spec's committee.
