Unfortunately TE is highly gamified, and the benchmarks (like most benchmarks!) don't really represent real-world workloads.

True, but it's great that they have a certain comparable hello-world set, so you can just take the 2-n benchmarks for the tech you're interested in and either ungamify it or just implement your own prototype and measure. The benefit of already having a non-random-tutorial-from-google app is a huge win to me personally.
