The Intel chip in that comparison was released in Q1 2018, almost three years ago now. How is this a helpful comparison?

The 2019 16” MBP (the one many pros will spring for) is still running the 9th gen intel. So a lot of people will either still have these chips, or will still be considering them in an upgrade.
