R5II dynamic range and noise at photonstophotos

As long as you stick to looking at their measurements and eschew their 'scores'.
Absolutely! Just about all combined scores from evaluation sites are pretty suspect as the weighting of the individual component scores is subjective, but DxO is something else. Still, we can forgive them as they have given us Prime and DeepPrime.

I'm unclear on the relationship between DxO and DxOMark. I think the business model of the latter is to sell the evaluation suite and/or data primarily to makers/consumers of small sensors (mobile, automotive, automation, security), and they measure ILC sensors because DxO has them for their software business.

Even the subscores (landscape, portrait, sports) aren't useful, and their lens scores are even worse (the latter being heavily influenced by dynamic range). Well, maybe they're useful to some people...for example, those shooting portraits in a dimly-lit warehouse (which seems to be a use case their scores emphasize, with 150 lux illumination).
