(...)The odd parts however are that they didn't bother bringing this fix over to the Release build in Oct 5th, held the update to some arbitrary date in the future (Oct 19th) instead of releasing a fix immediately, and (apparently) still didn't address both issues on the Oct 19th update (latency and throughput; although I'm hearing mixed things about this).

I could give some kind of a pass about this if Microsoft indicated they have no idea what changed, but they fixed this over a month ago, and are somehow incapable of just redoing the fix all of a sudden for Release builds. It's incompetence best-case, and suspicious worst-case.

Honestly, Intel has been dealing with things in the most shady way possible for over thirty years; I really wouldn't put it past them that your thinking is correct.

Wintel is an old meme with some basis in truth, so tbh, I am not surprised that AMD was not invited to the developer loop when this component was being worked on. (Probably at the insistence of Intel) MS needs to do some policy changes regarding exclusivity.
