Tech companies/bloggers/press/etc are perpetually bad at benchmarks. For browsers they kept pushing simplistic javascript-centric benchmarks even when it was clear for at least 15 years that layout/paint/network/etc were the dominant bottlenecks in real-world usage. It's primarily marketing-driven. I think the technical parts of companies need to attempt to own this more. It gets really weird when engineering priorities shift because of these mostly irrelevant benchmarks.
