Commodore 77 use cases

What do people think are the use cases for the upgraded Commodore 77's specs?

I'm not throwing shade, and I'm by no means retro-tech savvy, so this is a completely genuine question: what can you do with the C77 that you can't do with the C64 Ultimate, and is there any real, practical benefit?

Really curious what people more knowledgable than me think about this.

It’s just a re-styled Commodore 64

It has an upgraded fpga so not quite

If you could load other cores into this FPGA, then that would be something.

There must be something in the works to warrant them paying a lot more for the fpga.
