the rate at which the helium is used would constitute a part of that experiments performance
By that logic the rate of decay of all parts of the machinery are included in performance. Meaning that cheap parts that can produce the same output as more expensive parts would have lower performance because they will degrade quicker. You could also say that a fans ability to not be clogged would be performance, even though that's not addressed.
The wikipedia link describes performance per watt. Merely affirming that it is a performance metric.
It is in fact a performance metric, but the bet was not made on that specific metric. We could expand on this logic to say that the whole bet depends on a single unused diode.
No I am not defining anything, I am saying performance per watt is just a facet of performance.
I didn't mean to accuse you of defining it, i just wanted to point out that it's undefined right now.
Unless you have some evidence that it isn't we are done.
I think i've pretty much stated my case. At this point i'm just replying to replies
