You mentioned that you regret buying into a dead platform, AM4. AM6 does not yet exist, so your only other option when building/buying a new PC was AM5

You should scroll up and read again. My original comment was about when AM6 would be available.

Did you mean that you wish you had stuck with whatever you had before you built your AM4 system and waited until AM6?

No, I meant that I wish I had just bought into AM5 originally when it debuted, as is my current intention for AM6.
