> I'd say it's because Intel wants to show something for their GPU-building efforts

I think this hits the nail on the head.

In the same sense that Intel enabled/pushed a low volume Cannon Lake laptop as a China only SKU so they could tell the analysts, "see we've shipped 10nm" - even if the onboard GPU didn't work and had to have AMD RX540 instead.
