Ok, that's fair: it is always quite disappointing when a project lies about its status (and if I ever get a chance to complain directly about that, I probably will)... but, at least it used to be accurate (and likely was until very recently)? A lot of projects (I see this often with terminal apps) say stuff like "the fastest X", only, when you do a benchmark, they aren't even fast in an absolute sense, much less in a relative sense to other projects (and I believe I remember this being the case for nginx for a while vs. Apache with mpm_event).
As a side note, I see that Apache still describes it as "the most popular web server on the Internet", but that's probably not the case: https://w3techs.com/technologies/overview/web_server
To me, that has shades of XFree86 calling itself "the premier open source X11-based desktop infrastructure." Um...
