Fun fact: I once pointed Larabel to wrong benchmark results he published. I uploaded my
results and explained him what he needed to do to correctly configure his machine. He said
everything was OK and republished later another "article" with the exact same mistake. I
posted again how to do things properly. And another "review" with wrong results was
published. And that configuration was just using a vendor provided script to set the board
at the right frequency as was explained in the documentation. So on top of the dubious test
selection, there are issues with the way he runs those tests.

I have no issues with people being wrong, but insisting on being wrong despite evidence is
not acceptable.
