Has Apple deliberately nerfed the M3 Pro CPU? And for what reason?

Maybe upon further testing they've noticed he bandwidth is never going to be utilized with base M1/M2 specs, hence they were able to lower it without impacting end-user experience. So lowering production cost without any impact. But that's a big maybe.
