It’s not the fact it’s insignificant, it’s the fact they’re causing an issue like this at all. Also 6800/7000 is a 2.9% loss of memory performance, because math.

That’s why you’re getting downvoted.

A 2.9% loss of memory clock does not directly equate to a 2.9% loss of performance.

Of course not, but to say it’s 1% performance hit is just as much a random guess based on that guy being cool with voice software causing clock issues on GPUs, which it should NEVER do. If you’re running memory bandwidth constrained tasks it absolutely can be MORE than 2.9% if you’re starving the GPU.
