From this you can draw different conclusions. But only one of them can be true.
If you restrict it to these two parts of the alternatives there is no contradiction whatsoever.

What bugs me all the time is that so often people are making a comparison and they don't know or understand what the clock path is. There are many times where it appears to the ignorant that the converter is internally clocked when it isn't. About here the comparisons become meaningless.
