Well this was unexpected!

So holding back and only giving a small incremental upgrade.. Is it me or does this seem like something Intel would do?

The AMD Ryzen 6000 lineup, codenamed Warhol, was expected to feature the Zen 3+ architecture based on the 6nm process node. The lineup would have offered similar gains in performance such as the AMD Zen 2+ (Pinnacle Ridge) chips which were branded as the Ryzen 2000 parts however, it looks like AMD has decided to move away from Warhol and focus on Raphael, its next-generation Zen 4 Desktop CPU lineup.
This is reported by reliable leaker, ExectuableFix, who states that aside from the leaked roadmap, AMD's Ryzen 6000 Warhol lineup hasn't appeared anywhere yet. He states the Zen 4 based AMD Phoenix (Ryzen 7000) APUs have already shown up in other places and a part that comes earlier hasn't even shown up anywhere yet suggests that it no longer exists. On the other hand, another insider has stated that while AMD has cancelled Warhol CPUs, there's still a refresh coming which would be based on the existing Zen 3 core architecture and feature the 7nm process node known as the Ryzen 5000 XT.
