That very concept of "optimal IPC/Watt" point is not something easy to
define considering a monotonic function and without considering the
specific optimization goals.

It really sounds like saying that an LP problem has a unique solution
independently from the optimization function.

Do you think we should "mandate" an optimization function from kernel
space? I'm not saying it does not make sense, but I find it at least a
strong implementation enforcement.
