Of course, your Mum also requires a car that can drive > 100 miles between fill ups.

The most "power user" cars in the world, Formula One, can only go around 60 miles between fill ups.

Large amounts of data doesn't make someone a power user, and lack of data doesn't make someone not a power user.



I think you are extending your analogy wrong.

A better analogy would be somebody who fills their trunk with their weekly groceries and commutes 60 miles total per day being considered the same as either an F-1 driver or a long haul trucker -- when their use cases for their vehicle are pretty normal.

Formula One is not a "power user", it's a sport.

A correct analogy would be truckers and professional vans.
