"why would you assume that the decrease in L1 size will be a negative?" Assuming it even happens. Current L1 has a 3 cycle latency. If that can be cut to 2, or even 1 by halving its size, it would be a win. Especially if the also cut the latency to L2, a capacity miss hurts less on the average. To assume AMD hasn't modeled this to death is hubris in the extreme.
