Impressive that your command of the English language encourages you to try to split such tiny hairs. However, if you had more experience in both English and wireless implementation, you'd know that "defy" is absolutely appropriate in this usage and that "test" models don't even need ASICs. Rather they use test software emulators.

As for the size of the Nordic pixies, I suspect that their size rivals that of our American Easter Bunny.
