>>Any thoughts?

I'm willing to take a stab at an answer: At that time all the K7 engineers were preoccupied with making sure K7 was working for launch. They couldn't spare K7 engineers for the product test engineering and so on.

Also, the end of life of K6 was to be as a mobile part, as it has much lower power consumption than K7. So setting up K6 for Dresden production wouldn't be a total waste.
