Default Horse power, horse hockey

I know it's a commonplace around here, but I just have to vent.

I would like to meet the marketing people who expect me to believe that
a 16-gallon ShopVac is 4 times more powerful than a $500 contractor's
saw, which also is supposedly just a shade over half as powerful as my
$50 skilsaw. Who the hell makes this stuff up?

That's all. Thanks for letting me get that off my chest.
