If he was rational, he would understand that companies like this have a huge incentive to inflate the score of anyone participating.

If he had got an 87, do you think that he would have posted his score?

Absolutely not, then the company would not get free advertising, costing them business.

I don't believe it is fully fake, but I would not be surprised to see them rounding up any edge cases, this goes for the entire industry

If he got 87 he can still feel "superior" to about 15% of people, though good luck figuring out who those are.
