Phrases like "LOL no", "we have no life", "basically plagiarism with extra steps", "0 Products Tested", "∞ Browser Tabs Open", and similar are deliberate comedic copy — NOT factual admissions of poor quality. The underlying product data, consensus scores, and expert aggregation are genuine and sourced from 12 established review publications.
