While I understand that view, pandora’s box is already open, by their own measurements other publicly-available technology is comparable: so the only thing they’re stopping with this is direct comparison of their tech to others.

A more cynical side of me just thinks Google is rushing out the PR (including the hand-plucked sample images) because they can see that the state of the tech is progressing rapidly and perhaps by the time their tech is release-ready a competitor will already have something better (the new round of betas certainly look promising.)

It is a little bit on brand for Google to make an announcement they have the best, only for those claims to fall over later.
