Sorry, I wasn't trying to discourage anybody from buying the Ryzen processor.
Just be aware that Intel have gotten VERY competetive in this slice of the market, and AMD seem to be treating themselves to a "premium" price tag* all too frequently.

* "AMD Ryzen 5 5600 Rumored to Launch Early 2021 for 220 USD"
* "AMD is debuting the Ryzen 5 5600X at a staggering $299, which is the highest launch price ever for a Ryzen 5-series processor"
* "With a retail price of around $160, the Core i5-10400F is priced very competitively"

Will Intel be 30% cheaper then?

Yep. Intel's delivering @ sub-$155 for the 3rd generation in a row, now. OEM towers based on i5-xx00F seem to get them for even cheaper.

So Intel's announced 6-core CPU is over 30% slower than AMD's last year CPU?

Heh. You might not remember, but the FX-8150 ("Bulldozer") ROCKED synthetics. Blender, x264, XML, too - and we ain't talking a measely 30%. Its "weaker competitor"? The Core i7-2600K.
Do review before purchase:
1) Geekbench test suite whitepaper;
2) GTX 1650 performance in laptops w/ hexa-core Ryzen 5 (7nm) vs. quad-core i5 (14/10nm).

Shrugs. Still way cheaper than 6-core Ryzen, and 1~10% better FPS in games is guaranteed (already is, even on last-gen i5).

3600X 250€
5600X 315€
10400F 150€
If the 11400F launches at a similar price it's a killer deal.

If they were smart, which they aren't, they would undercut the 3600x with this. Perfect for someone who wants a low budget pc with a little pep and doesn't want to buy a graphics card.
