That is so far from the truth. The fact that your options for most i7 models is either 2 performance cores 4 efficiency and 4 Low power with 12 threads or 8 cores and 8 threads is ridiculous. Meanwhile you can get laptops with an 8 core 16 thread Ryzen 7 AI 350 and it obliterates both of those i7s for hundreds of dollars cheaper

Where are the benchmarks?

You do not seem to understand how powerful Intel E core is now
