The 24v 40mm and 24v-12v converter are probably aimed at the 3D printing market, where 24V is the (mostly) standard PSU voltage and 40mm is a very common fan size for hotend and part cooling fans.
24 volt is bog-standard for industrial controls. You could use it in a 3d printer, sure, but there's about a billion other more mundane applications too.
For all we know there could be a socket tweak or packaging tweak in the works for Threadripper. Perhaps lessons learned from the current-gen X3D CPU's (though that is obviously an entirely different platform than TR there could be some considerations being made for TR)
Where/how can I buy Noctua stocks? I already buy and replace all my fans with them. And then I never need to buy another until I add another system, because their fans never break. And their solutions are near-equal to water cooling without the maintenance. I run my systems 24/7/365, I'm not looking for downtime due to cracked hoses. I don't even care if they make money. They make a consistently good product, I want to own a part of it. Where can I ship money to them?
Perhaps reach out to support@noctua.at? Per https://noctua.at/en/rascom-kolink they are a joint venture between Rascom, an Austrian LLC, and Kolink, a Taiwanese fan manufacturer without a working website.

That "Next Gen 140mm" with the LCP sterrox keeps getting delayed. I bet they'll release it in the 2050's, provided we're not all dead by then.edzieba - Tuesday, May 9, 2023 - link

Do folks read this as suggesting SP5 Threadrippers? Seems like older coolers could fit SP3/SP6 and at most you'd redesign them for higher TDP.SP5 seems awfully chonky for any sort of workstation, but I suppose the point of the whole segment is someone out there really wants that performance.

Note also that there is https://kolink.eu which cites a change of ownership in 2014 on its own About page, so perhaps Rascom bought them out.Scalptrash - Thursday, May 11, 2023 - link
Disappointed they aren't going to make white fans, at least for a long time. Oh well, I guess Artic will get my money.
