Its funny that companies like that will actually publish a shock dyno. Just shows that much of the public doesn't know what they are looking at. The more hilarious thing would be to have them show the dyno of 4 identical dampers back to back. because I doubt any of them would have the same linear plotting. :P
The flatness is not right but I don't think it's the displayed scale. The shape just isn't correct to the units. Unless they are just that terrible (or impossible). If you look at the rebound (compression? The flatter one on the bottom.) It shows a digressive shape before it flattens out. But it transitions from the steeper slope to the flat one at less than .5"/sec!?!? That's ridiculous.

But it probably generates this: "Dude, my Megans rock your K-Sports cause they have a shock graph!"
