I'm not a hardware person, but this looks like interesting work!

So far, each major PCIe spec revision has added a single new data
rate, but that may not always be true, and the spec always uses
terminology like "16.0 GT/s or higher" instead of terms like "Gen 4".

So "supports 16.0 GT/s and 32.0 GT/s Links" might be clearer.

Usage in the spec itself would be more like "PCIe Base Spec Revision 5.0"
since it doesn't use "Gen 5".
