Like Break Strength - Marketing Hype?

I didn't want to hijack the recent thread about line, so here it is.

I know there is a lot of marketing hype about a lot of things in fishing, but this is one I really find hilarious. 15lb line that breaks at 20lbs sounds a whole lot like 20lb line to me.

Opinions?
