Also, TDP is a spec point with a lot of BS. Intel's TDP is widely mocked for being far under the actual maximum power draw of the chip. I don't know how Apple is working out their TDP but it's almost certainly different to Intel. But then if you have accurate numbers it's still not a great measure because cores are at their least efficient when maxed out (like desktop CPUs usually are and laptop CPUs usually aren't), so it's a comparison which is unfair to intel and you should really compare the real power consumption of an intel CPU when clocked to get equivalent performance to an M1. So the data is basically useless as a comparison.
