Wikipedia is more accurate than your use of Tflop.
Check the citations.

AMD's Vega whilst based on Craphics Core Next gen 4.0, has a completely different memory subsystem, likely more (And maybe better) geometry engines with a superior ROP/TMU count, caching etc'. It will have a different efficiency curve than Polaris.
Thus even if Vega had the same amount of Tflop as Polaris, it would still be faster.

 

Tflops is currently THE ONLY thing we have to go on at this point, I don't like it anymore than you but you can't do any estimates any other way as it was litterally the ONLY piece of information provided. wikipedia is a pile of shit and whether any given article is correct is potluck.

No it isn't all that we have to go on... And even if it was, it's about as accurate as using the shader counts to gauge the performance of a part.

As for Wikipedia. There are citations, use them, they are accurate, they are there for a reason.
