John,
re: AMD is corrupting an industry standard.

How could they? That's what Intel already did when they decided to release a processor that is slower on a per clock basis than it's predecessor, thus making MHz obsolete as a performance indicator (something which wasn't a good idea anyway, just think of the performance e.g. Alpha processors offer).

because it's adds confusion for the end user
It might be confusing first, but naturally people will ask questions to clear their confusion and in the end they will be better informed.
