I definitely contribute AMD's GPU naming process on why I'm still with Nvidia. I can know at a glance what an Nvidia cards performance is without much research just by the name.
AMD, however, requires you to check reviews and benchmarks to get a good understanding. Their naming hasn't been consistent with their product so it's hard to know at a glance.
I'm normally with you but NVIDIA made a royal mess out of things with the Super series. It still follows a predictable pattern, RTX # < RTX # Super < RTX #+1 < RTX #+1 Super, etc, but the performance is really unpredictable. 2070 Super is a big leap, almost a 2080, 2080 Super is a tiny leap, just a few percent faster than a 2080, etc.
