Again, I'm being misquoted here. I'll try to explain again....
No, the numbers and scores and specs are meaningless. But remember one thing: this phone was pulled for 'enhancements' and other upgrades, and Moto tweeted and posted messages along with VZW and countless other media outlets, etc - all telling us that 'it will be worth the wait', etc etc bla bla bla.
Moto, VZW and the media did this - so when the thing is actually benchmarked you're damn right we're going to put it under a microscope. Where have you been since January when this phone was first announced?
It's like pushing off a major exam and you spend countless nights and days studying and when you finally take the test you get a B. Sure, that's good enough, but not the best score. With all the hype you would EXPECT nothing but the BEST.
