Well we know now how they will bridge the long wait to Zen4 on AM5 Q4 2022.
Production start for V-cache is end this year so too early for Zen4 so this is certainly coming to AM4.
+15% Lisa said is "like an entire architectural generation"

It just looks like the product entry was removed from the database. I don't read any Chinese at all, so I can't say for sure, but if you follow the links there's no product listing at all, just a generic-looking page.
Would be fun if AMD got the local authorities involved to pull the listing.

Dunno if that could be classified as "fun". But it does look like someone realized it was not for resale and had it pulled. Perhaps TaoBao sorted it out internally before anyone had to alert authorities.

It's China, what type of law enforcement in China would enforce that?

Depends! Their laws are . . . arcane. You really need to look at who is going to benefit from a particular action that would be considered a breach of contract (which the resale of a QS on TaoBao would be).

If you look at the number of ES and QS chips on ebay, MOSTLY from China, that tells you all you need to know.

eBay doesn't really enforce takedowns on those sales, though. Also, most of those chips are well past their market window. Milan-X is still hot property.

Okay, at least we know there won't be a latency hit. That's a good sign. More benches please? Is there some embargo on Milan-X benchmarks?

Milan-X is selling retail now (okay technically its still in pre-order retail), why isn't anyone benchmarking it to completion?

No, the CnC team just got access to it last night, and were extremely excited to put out some initial data on it. More to come in the future.

ST is underwhelming due to low clock, but I don't know how low it clocked, Benchleaks said 3.1-3.2Ghz but it was showed 2.1Ghz in the GB page

probably wasn't heavy enough for the SMU to even bother ramping up the cores( i have this problem with GB on both of my Zen2 and Zen3 laptops) . that's the problem with GB , its really light and really fast.
