Do we assume that Zen was designed primarily for the server market in AMD's priorities?
If we assume that the server space is where the big profits exist and that running medium stressed VMs is a large part of that market, then higher core count Zen2 is very much a rational product.
If we also assume that Zen2 is a drop-in replacement for Zen, then this becomes an even bigger selling point for server farms.
Ignore the above at your own risk, in my opinion.
