our battery tests are not designed to be a direct simulation of a consumer’s experience.

THEN WHAT'S THE BLOODY POINT!?!

Benchmarking without context is navel gazing.

Worse, it's MISLEADING because it's coming from CONSUMERS Reports, one might get the mistaken impression it's about CONSUMERS.

But NO-O-O-O-O... it's about non-real-world testing in a lab in a scenario that no CONSUMER uses.

It's a software DEVELOPER setting!

NOTE: I make the same complaint about Windows PC testing in so-called "reviews" that's done with non-real-use parameters and then touted as "user experience".
