It's not a matter of decoding-- it's wrong. Watts are a rate of energy usage. It's like saying that my car can drive 60 MPH per day. Doesn't make any sense.

(I do think you're right about the confusion and exploitation of the difference between peak power and average power.)

My car gets 60 miles per hour per day, when I am pushing it. At that acceleration I can do a quarter mile in just under 27 minutes.
