This is my guess based on the performance levels of some modern day engines shown in the table below. I would expect a threshold level be passed with the TF35k engine.

Alloys' performance stops improving at around 1400 °C and additional performance is achieved mostly through cooling. Small blades offer little real estate to implement cooling and larger blades can host more cooling features hence deliver better peak performance. Also 5 years passed since the time of this implementation, we can expect improvements.

Snecma M88 achieves 1577 °C with air cooled, ceramic coated, single crystal turbine blades made from a new AM1 alloy (N-18 alloy in the final production engines),
So it is reasonable to consider matching this performance level for the TF35k engine.
