I lot of people are having a hard time grasping or accepting.

“But this benchmark has these issues”, “but this is hardware accelerated, so it's not a fair comparison”, etc. I think when enough benchmarks and real world usage have been run, it will sink in.

What did people expect? They've been killing it with 5W fan-less chips for years. Have you seen how confident Apple is in those videos?

it's fair to be careful with something new. if it's that great and it will be quickly apparent.

I wouldn't classify the backlash as carefulness.
