Puzzled over the claimed torque of impact drivers.

I get even more confused.

To me an impact briver is a thing about the size of a half pint milk
bottle with a bit on the front that you bash with a hammer to loosen
the screw/bolt attached.

That's 'cos you are an Old Fart. I have one of those too and am, too, an OF.
The world has moved on, and impact driver means a nasty noisy thing that
tries to make up for lack of clout by rattling a lot (I don't have one of
those).
