In other words, the restrictions allow a vendor to prevent the results of a
fair evaluation from being released if the results make them look bad.

Most vendors include in there licenses restrictions in how detailed
information for their products can be publicly distributed. It does not mean
that the vendor won't allow public release of information, but that the
vendor retains to right to grant or deny the permission to such release of
information.

In the age of "click licenses" we probably don't bother to check such things
in our haste.
