Not the point at all. Like I said, he has many happy customers and I'm sure builds a fine product. It's just inherently hard to be the little guy claiming that the big guy's claims are bunk, then simultaneously trying to sell your product. Zipp wants to sell something, so they'll present information that makes their product look the best. So will Reynolds, HED, Enve, and anyone else. Why Psimet would be different is beyond me. All of them are selling what they think is the best wheel.
