In no way I expect a professional with the technical understanding on how this systems work internally to make a final evaluation at face value alone based on blog made by an illiterate and not by checking the actual doc.
But I share your fear in that sometimes companies leave this delicate selections in the hands of illiterate MBAs... like engine selections for new Boeing models...

TPS Counter: help debunk the "7 tps" myth

> it clearly makes no difference in practical terms

I think it makes a difference. When designing systems to work within bitcoin's limits, it is important to know what those limits are. There might be a system design that works as long as most blocks can hold 7000 transactions, but breaks if blocks are limited to 4000 transactions. Therefore, a person with this false 7 tps idea in their head might discard a very useful design simply because of false statistics. That would be bad.
