Isnt the reason to by a Framework (or similar) because you would not want to be part of Apple's ecosystem? Why would benchmarks even matter here?

Framework needs an audience bigger than that because mostly people don't think in terms of ecosystem, they think in terms of 'does it do what I want for a cost I want to pay' and Apple wins on this.

Only if they insist on expanding.

For now the audience of disgruntled former Apple customers or just repairability enthusiasts appears to be enough.

Windows is the most popular OS for laptops in the US precisely because it does what people want for a price they want to pay.
