Yeah, had the same experience at a previous company. It's very frustrating that your transparency gets used against you by unscrupulous competitors.

How is it unscrupulous?

This sort of shit happens all the time at all levels. Companies use each other’s public specs in their competition all the time.

Or capitalizing on features like headphone jacks etc. in their ads before proceeding to remove them from their own products anyway (Samsung and Google) and so on.

You're missing the point. The point is that it isn't apple to apples. If you are honest with a dashboard, and the competitor isn't (or doesn't have one), it's not fair to compare.

Just because it happens all the time doesn't mean it isn't unscrupulous.

OK, so what's your point? The outcome of this is still a worse situation for everyone involved in the end.
