Yep, Pretty much it is the same criteria that reviews have injected since time began. Some subjectivity is going to creep in...no way to do it other than to run tests, post numbers, and just declare the winner based on the objective numbers. We all know that cars aren't just the numbers they produce on a skidpad, so that wouldn't work, either. Reviewers don't have the easiest job. When they're doing their jobs right, the readers understand the context of their subjective statements. When they aren't, they present their subjective judgements as objective fact.

As readers of reviews, we need to hold them to some standards, I think. This wasn't WELL DONE hyperbole is my main issue with it. :-)

...I like my hyperbole well done, not pink in the middle...
