Except they're not promising anything other than "it's ahead". What does that mean? Only the node size is smaller? Peak performance? Performance per watt? "It's ahead" doesn't mean anything of substance and gives him all the legal leeway in the world.

He's not even promising that, he's saying he "thinks" he is ahead. And he tells nothing about yields, having the greatest node is useless if you can't deliver volume.
