Raw battery specs are meaningless when the underlying hardware and software is different. Battery specs on iPhones look pretty bad too compared to a lot of Android phones, real world performance is a different thing.
Intel has been working on more power efficient CPU's more than faster CPU's the last years. Same goes for RAM. I guess Apple did the same on the software side.
I still think something isn't completely like the engineers wanted it to be if I look at the way the batteries are fitted inside the chassis. And I am happy I am in a position to skip this year's version because I expect there will be an improved model that will deal with a lot of these smaller issues that weren't fixed in time before Christmas.
But I don't think there's a dramatic decrease in real world performance at all. Just that with a better battery design it would clearly improve instead.
