Whole thing feels like a paper launch being held up by people looking for blog traffic missing the point.
I'd be pissed if I paid this much for hardware and the performance was this lacklustre while also being kneecapped for training

Obviously, even with connectx, it's only 240Gi of VRAM, so no big models can be trained.
But if FP4 means 4bit floating point, and that the hardware capability of the DGX Spark is effectively only in FP4, then yes. That was nonsense to wish it could have been used for training. But it wasn't obvious from the advertising of nvidia.
