<As K7's will be scarce AMD would be better served by flogging a large percentage of the parts with large amounts of cache particularly into the server/workstation space.>

Ideally this would be great since AMD can then sell the initial low-volume K7 at very high prices.

That's probably not going to happen, at least not for a while. I would guess it's tons more easier to develop a desktop chipset that supports the current technologies out there (PC100 SDRAM) so that you can have the infrastructure in place by the time K7 is released.
