The benchmarks themselves aren't really deceptive, but wccftech's reporting on them is misleading. These aren't claims being made by Intel, but just random user benchmarks that appeared online. For all benchmarks, context matters. These days, most in-depth reviewers understand how to work with transient power and thermal limits with respect to time. For example, measuring the MacBook Air M1's peak speed/time vs. its lower sustained speed after it hits thermal throttling around the 5-7 minute mark.
