Not sure what's new ... same feature already existed since forever?

Even on my Windows 7 system and 10 year old CPU it's the same: whenever starting an app, the CPU briefly jumps from idle clock to max clock. Has always been this way. What exactly is "new" or "different" compared to before? Where is the scandal? Why the outrage?

'With that said, sources are clear that this feature is still in early testing and is likely to change before official announcement or unveiling

It was unclear from the article if this would also work on desktops? Or desktops set in performance mode?
