I mean that some people may try to interpret the "supercomputer" marketing promise quite literally rather than figuratively. And then complain about the GFLOPS numbers being much lower than their unrealistic expectations. Though if we compare the Pine64 board with supercomputers from 1980's, then it is surely going to wipe floor with them :-)
BTW, some people are having fun trying to replicate ancient supercomputers - http://www.chrisfenton.com/homebrew-cray-1a/
