In the article this is a strawman, and the very next paragraph refures it (or tries at least):
But that feels like a good argument for Nvidia to stop caring whether its gaming GPUs sell, not why it might feel the need to meddle with reviews. If the desktop RTX 5060 doesn’t hit sales goals, the company will be more than OK. Nvidia would be less OK if everyone started questioning its integrity.
IMO Nvidia has been doing shady marketing for decades (also shady behind-the-courtain deals). No particular reason for that, especially when they have the better product, this is just how they operate. But the market rewards it, and IMO it helped them to get where they are now.
