This fits Microsoft. If you know where it is, you surely cannot assess what it can do. /s

Right off the bat "can scale to a million qubits" tells you it's BS since it only says what could be possible but makes zero claims about what it current does.

I mean my basement can scale to holding thousands of bars of solid gold, but currently houses... 0.

yeah, nobody can claim scaling without having the error to prove it. SPAM + coherence time + gate fidelity are the limiting factors to scaling, not the concept of an idea of how to build it at scale :-)
