Your thoughts does seem a bit one-track to me. One-track, and biased to the point where they are just plainly wrong. From the Petunia page:

The 68k emulator IS done. It's just not integrated yet. Well, actually it might be, since the above information isn't exactly new. Anyway, I'm finding it hard to believe that you didn't know this. You appear now to be intentionally spreading direct misinformation about AmigaOS4.

I am of course aware of the importance of integrating it into AmigaOS. That doesn't make the statement "the Petunia webpage disagrees with the statement that the 68k emulator is done" any more truthful.
