I'm a bit puzzled about their weird naming. "T14s Gen 6" when apparently "T14s Gen 5" was Intel based. Surely changing the entire CPU architecture deserves a new model name?

Actual model numbers of T14s Gen 6(AMD) and Gen 6(Snapdragon) are respectively 21M1 and 21N1, they still use IBM inherited "Machine Type-Model" system. Looks like this is now expanded into a 4-3-3 digits alphanumeric sequence like "21N1001PUS". In case anyone needed cues to tackle these confusions...
