You are right that people don't demand detailed figures from Apple to draw their own conclusions. But there are a couple of problems there. Comparing the credibility of Apple with that of WDRP is like comparing apples to... rotten apples. Also, Apple sells products to a very large number of people who would buy that product no matter what as soon as possible, regardless of the fact that is is inferior to competing products or far more expensive, which is very often the case. WDRP doesn't have that luxury, nobody has heard of it, it needs to prove itself. Also, Apple's products are put through numerous tests by independent reviewers and compared directly with competitors in categories like battery life, running benchmarks, even drop tests. Same goes for the auto industry etc. So even "ordinary" consumers demand these detailed results and if the companies don't offer them then they go find them somewhere else. WDRP being such a tiny company my guess is nobody will carry out these tests, other than possibly the potential manufacturers or distributors and they are unlikely to make the results public. So the only place we can get details in this case is the company itself. So overall I'd say we absolutely should expect and ask for detailed results, far far more than just "about 20% more efficient". The second to last PR went into a good amount of detail regarding how efficiency comparisons are made so hopefully they give us a lot of info.
