Concocting a benchmark involving network latency that somehow runs 4x slower on the Intel system is bad enough. Using a geometric average in order to make that one bogus benchmark pull the competition's "average" application performance below your own is shameful.

You have things like:

Intel better by 1.1x, 1.1x, 1.2x, 1.2x, etc.

So they created some BS to get 1 "benchmark" where Intel was only .25x the performance, and *multiplied* together, and took nth root to make their "average".

What a joke.
