if they claim a 15lb Turkey feeds 12, how am I supposed trust any of the other numbers?

Or how 1 GW/(200 W/person) came up with a number that started with a 3 instead of a 5. Like 5 million people, not 30 million.

But it only takes 3.5 hours per turkey and a day has 24 of them. So if some people get up at 3am it works out!
