> it isn't the OP's responsibility to compare their project to all other projects

No one, including the GP, said it was.

It isn't, but such information will be immensely helpful to anyone who wants to learn from such projects. Some tutorials are objectively better than others, and learners can benefit from such information.

100% agree, I didn't mean to imply that OP is responsible for that, or that the (lack of) comparison detracts in any way from the work.
