I'd say its more accurate than a strictly FTP centric power curve. My power curve and racing tends towards suprathreshold efforts(mostly CX) so having the HIE/dFRC type of metric to focus on on gains is more accurate. I can also follow my high intensity training load and pretty much predict when I'm going to have a breakthrough ride or when I should go for one to refresh my signature. In terms of correct FTP, its a few watts lower estimates from a number of tests/models ie ramp/20/intervals.icu(Mortan CP). I think if you do lots of outside nonstructured riding and don't want to do lots of formal testing and training its as good as it gets, no other program can predict my fitness like Xert and guess pretty well what I can do in real time
