As a qualified Automotive engineer, I agree, with an Air fuel Ratio of
21.5:1 it would be not be running too well at all, unless the engine in
question had air injection and that would make it appear to be running as
lean as that.
The normal AFR is 14.7:1

Water injection is common place in highly modified supercharged or
turbocharged petrol engines, it allows a much higher compression ratio
without detonation which is a problem with spark ignited engines running

How do inefficiencies become irrelevant in an external combustion engine ?
Do you know how they get the NOx emissions down so low in an external
