If the Cannonlake CPUs are indeed based on 14nm for desktop platforms than Intel might take another route to woo their customers. Since this would be the fourth 14nm family for desktop platforms, Intel can update the total core count to 6 on mainstream desktop PCs. It is already known from*roadmap leaks*that Intel would be upping the core count for Coffee Lake-H platforms to 6 so it doesn’t make sense not to do the same with the desktop platforms.
