Reducing the whole CXL potential/debate to "memory recycling" technology, is also heavily underwhelming. It's also for CPU-to-CPU cache coherent comms, so I was expecting to get fiber bridges between systems which fit in PCIe slots, so we can finally build out rackscale NUMA machines, as mere mortals, without own R&D...
Please don't kill the technology with such a weak momentum by coming at it from a wrong angle, it can be far more than glorified swap - there's also nothing novel for us by thinking in that direction, I think.
