It would be great if they could start to publish benchmark results for Shor's algorithm if the conputer is able to run it, even if the results are not exact at this point.

They absolutely can't publish benchmark results for Shor; their architecture can't run it at all. This is Google and IBM's marketing departments duking it out for ... reasons. IBM has physics on their side.

  They wrote that the computer is a generic computer, so it's perfectly capable of running Shor's algorithm, just not with practical parameters (for example without error correction)
