If you're going to try and discredit people at least give good reason and/or sources. Marcan has working code on WiiU hardware so we're supposed to take your word over his because...?

First of all, Marcan not say from which is derived the specifications. The console hardware not detail the specifications in his internal code, this is a lie, only a PC or a DEV KIT can do that. The worts, this guy don't say nothing of how already done, suspect. The OS of Wii U is gelding in system information, is enabled only for four things.
Nintendo has done a good job hiding or better, eliminated, certain things like system specifications

So it basically comes down to you not believing his claims. Considering the fail0verflow team have hacked pretty much all the current gen consoles I'm more inclined to believe their WiiU claims and the general direction they're taking in the homebrew scene:

One thing is break the internal security code to hack the console and other very different is reveal the official system specifications. I repeat, only a DEV KIT can say exactly which specifications has the hardware, no a group of hackers playing with the internal security code.

But, a fimrware of the hardware has some basic details about the hardware itself like device name, its code/model, serial etc., through which we can atleast get some approximate specifications about what it can be by analyzing those details with the already known architectures/hardwares. Also sometime a retail console can be turned into dev kit with some changes which is already done to PS3. We may not get accurate specification by hacking into the code but we'll get an approximate/base specifications to go even further in future to know  more of them.
