It's trivial to find reviews and benchmarks of DS4 online. Also, there are benchmarks in the article.

Bizarre comment; sounds like "How do you know Porsches are fast? Did you drive one?"

Parent is simply pointing out the incorrect usage of "empirically", which should typically only be mentioned when you've tested it yourself.

I'm having trouble finding dictionaries or other references that add the qualifier that it needs to be self-tested and not relying on the research of others. Can you point me to one?

I don't think comments on the internet count as "empirical" evidence, but sure.

If you think antirez's benchmarks in the blog post are false, you should make the claim. Continue to move the goal posts.
