Puts the NUC11TNHi3 as the modern equivalent to the NUC7i7DN used in the Nucleus+, unless you need more than 4 threads.
Then the NUC11TNHi5 seems to be the modern sweet spot, similar single thread as the NUC11i3, NUC8i7 but with the 8 threads.
The NUC11TNHi7 doesn’t seem to bring much more to the party.
