As has been discussed here and elsewhere ad nauseum for decades, and is true.
"98%" is an expression, not a factual statistic. It's like saying "giving 110%". Nobody can give 110% of their effort - 100% is, by definition, the maximum. It's an expression.
Clearly, matching speakers and amps is essential, but room setup can make or break even a great match. That's the point.
Edit: Having said that, playing music in nightclubs and other smallish venues often doesn't give you a lot of choices about where to put the speakers.
