According to the CEO in the LTT video about this thing it was a design choice made by AMD because otherwise they cannot get the ram speed they advertise.

Which is fine, but there was no obligation for Framework to use that chip either.

In the same video it's pointed out that this product wouldn't exist at all without the AMD chip. It's literally built around it.
