I think manufacturers have a different idea of what "continuous" means, even though it seems pretty clear to me what continuous means.
C rating still matters. The fact that mfgs use inflated specs is another issue.

I have yet to see a manufacturer dare to tippy toe beyond the 40C-45C mark.

A Manufacturer won't last long making claims they don't stand behind.
Marketing sells stuff, who would have thunk it...!!!

And a 40c lipo is pretty much all we need at the moment. The ridiculous claims are pretty funny, I guess just because I know something about lipo tech.
