He doesn't specifically say FP32 but we have also had ps4 pro numbers of 8 TF at FP16 which he didn't include either in his comparisons so I doubt he is mixing things up. Specially since he is writing an article about it which is based on his sources and the most common standard for measuring TF is FP32 so it would be very odd for his sources to give him FP16 measurements.

I'd rather put this rumor in the nonsense bin rather than give him this many legs to stand on considering the other stuff he says that is also pretty questionable that have been posted by other users.

Sony doesn't really market FP16 numbers, whereas Nvidia does (sometimes misleadingly IMO) for the Tegra chips. Many sites say the Maxwell Tegra X1 is 1 TFLOP of performance, because Nvidia says so and while technically it may be true, it's also misleading. 

But he is not getting it from other sites or Nvidia... He is getting it from his sources which are supposed to give him accurate information...
