FLOPS themselves can be innacurate as well. Because of how they can be misintepreted or misrepresented. For example with graphic hardware you can measure FLOPS in overall rendering capability,
Pixel throughput, Vertex throughput, texel throughput, Or math capabilities. And theres no "proper" way of measuring this.
