It’s related, but quantum supremacy is about asymptotic speedups rather than actual speed differences.

Additionally, it’s worth keeping in mind that D-Wave machines aren’t true quantum computers in the sense that they can’t perform Grover’s or Shor’s algorithms.

It’s not clear what “true quantum computer” means. There are many different types of quantum computers, and quantum annealing, what D-wave does, is one. It’s just the least interesting of the bunch...
