EP, <The P2P bus is of very questionable benefit>
You and your buddies at Intel seem to have missed
one more inflection point in modern technology:
the time for old "busses" is over! By applying the
whole power of your deduction, you may find out that
the EV6 P2P is NOT a BUS, it is POINT-TO-POINT
connection, and EXTREMELY FAST, without any
tracing/termination/anti-reflection tweaks
(where the major system production cost sits).
The busses/switches are going into SILICON, buddy,
S-I-L-I-C-O-N, to spell out for you, where they can
really do the intercommunication job, with
greater potential for speed, and without Xeon's
2-to-4 scalability constipation.

<There's a new party about to start and AMD
hasn't been invited.> Your party seems to be
in serious constipation but has not ordered
enough of portable toilets... must be sh!t
all over the place soon...
