I think you are 100% correct. Look at the iPad, it’s way overpowered for how limited iPadOS is.

Making a new cpu each year is probably really expensive and they come with marginal differences.

Apple can offer marginal iPhone processor increases and then take a few generations of marginal upgrades to release a new Mac processor with a bigger power jump.
