And the people who talk the most trash on the topics rarely if ever post any worthwhile data anyway. As in lap over lap track data, where heat is real.

i agree in that my top priorities go in this order:
1: reliability
2: drivability
3: area under the curve
4: peak power
but i disagree that lap after lap track data really matters. it does to a very, very small subset of the market, but the fact is 99+% of the FI 86's in the world will never take a lap on a track. and stock cars aren't even reliable in that scenario, so to expect one with 100+ extra horsepower to be so is a little much.
people who do track their cars don't need other people's data because they're generating it on their own, and are likely smart enough to realize that all of the variables at play would make it pretty much worthless to them.
