Of course Linux has it's failures, I'm a big critic myself but still love Linux. It's of course important to admit (hopefully temporary!) defeat where appropriate though.

In a sense, they're right, it is a failure of the community as a whole.
Perhaps an update for any progress in fixing any bugs and regressions if any caused those tests is in order, as well as more benchmarks which may be fairer/balanced and not purely Mac-oriented. For instance, since Mac also can run I think both AMD and Nvidia graphics, etc, or basically since you can install OS X on a normal computer that may not be so niche in Mac's favour, perhaps that would be an interesting experiment, at the risk of then being "not fair" with respect to Mac.

Linux really solves a lot of issues of freedom, too, that really irks for instance Windows users. However, there are features/freedoms on those "other" OSes (sorry, couldn't help myself) that Linux also needs to adopt that Linux users should have the luxury and freedom of enjoying as well. Speed is certainly one of those things, as is universal packaging standards, but I won't get into that here.
