I agree that technical details sometimes gets misrepresented or come out plain wrong. That's my observation as well and it's annoying when you're knowledgeable in the subject and try to make sense of what you've read (or read between the lines). I think a contributing factor is that it's generally hard to write about things you don't fully understand with the correct nomenclature. Especially when you might not be able to talk/ask for help about specifics with people more knowledgeable because of the secretive process. Things could've been dumbed down, intentionally or unintentionally, by those involved. It wouldn't be hard to imagine a conversation like: "-So it was sort of a coupler thing? -You could say that, yes". Or what if the technical detail came from a Chinese source and Google translate mangled it? The coupler thing is dumb and so is the picture (assuming it was a random product picture) but at least they might serve as a way of communicating the big picture: a hard to spot electronic "coupler" thing.
