DoE has absolutely no incentive (nor need, I'd argue) to compare their supercomputers to commercially owned data center operations though.

Comparing their crazy expensive custom built HPC to massive arrays of customer grade hardware doesn't bring them additional funds, nor help them more PR wise than being the owner of the fastest individual clusters.

Being at the top of some heap is visibly one of their goal:
