Don't know why these Snapdragon 8Gen 4 clockspeeds news are gained such tractions in the news lately.

Max clock speed is for marketing purposes or short burst in few scenarios,sustained clock speed is what tech savy consumers wants to know.

Most throttle to barely have of these advertised clock speeds.

Exactly, but these guys only read headlines and don't seem to have a deep understanding of the tech. Last thing we need is a ludicrously clocked SoC in a tiny thermally constrained device. Already SD 8 Gen 3 throttles like a bitch as did A17 Pro in iPhone 15 Pro (Max). Apple can't defy physics either.

And what happens when it throttles?
