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".
That said, Apple should send Consumers Reports $100 “Bug Bounty” for discovering the bug, even though in a back-ass-wards fashion. :-)
