I'm not following.... the demo involves you look at images as they get decoded. Objective benchmarks are beside the point here.

Oh, i left the wrong quotation whereas i intended to reply to another message. Throughout the blogpost you're quality matching and comparing encoders based on objective metrics whereas it'd be more telling to get the crowd subjective comparisons. I think it's pretty evident that most codecs benchmaxx to the point of objective metrics being useless.
Ah, no worries! I can't speak for Iris and Aperture, but both "tune IQ" modes in SVT-AV1 and libaom had extensive human evaluations to make sure they weren't accidentally being benchmaxxed at the expense of subjective quality.
