Exactly. Not sure about Netflix special, but there are experts that have dedicated their professional careers to creating fair benchmarks. Snowflake should just participate in the official TPC benchmark.

The benchmark itself is kinda useless, so I don't see why they should. If you look at tpc-h for years, you had exasol as a top dog, but in the real world that meant nothing for them.

Come on, you're going to make a ton of money on the IPO now focus on the things that matter in life... ie: starring in a netflix special.
