I have copied the BIOS off of my X470 and X570 and looked the code based closely. 

What I have concluded is that the AMD AGESA code based needs to be revamped significantly. It is now clear why the platform is so sensitive to RAM. A redesign of the memory controller logic is needed.

I have also concluded that the X470 Gaming Plus is a cheaper 4 layer board with the top chipset used. I would have expected a slightly better platform but in the price sensitive world cost matters to many.

My X570 is more expensive and the use of PCIe 4.0 probably motivated the 6 layer approach. 

So I stand by my assessment that the memory logic needs to be revamped as well as the device manager.

You're probably better off writing to the company who made the BIOS to give them feedback.  

Or even applying for a job with them to improve the code.

I tweeted them several times, so far so response

I can fix the BIOS if I had the full source, that is not hard from my perspective

To squeeze code into a tight space, threaded interpretive languages are the best options. These emerged with the early 8-bit processor for telescope control.
