Is this a joke?
I had one for the first time from our local co-op. It was definitely firmer than any other apple I’ve had but I wouldn’t call it “teeth-shattering” by any means.
Oh, but the flavor. Exquisite. Floral, fragrant. Tasted half like a really good apple, half like a perfectly ripe Bosc pear.
Do yourself a favor and find a ripe Arkansas Black apple. Best apple I ever had.
What, no Russets?! And Pink Lady are all sugar and no flavour.
They've ranked Granny Smith as "Not worth eating" so right off the bat I can tell you the rating system is junk. It loses the most points on its "density." Can't say I've ever eaten a granny smith and thought "I enjoy this taste, but I sure wish I could change the density."
McIntosh: “ A Seal-Skinned Canadian Letdown.” 45, horse food. So it’s war then.

Granny Smith is a trash tier Apple. The skin is inedible and it is absurdly sour. It's only edible if you peel the skin, cut it up, ...and bake it in something else. Alternatively peel the skin, and dip it into something such as peanut butter. By itself, it's trash tier.
It's never that crisp in the US.
I don't know why they rank Cosmic Crisp so low. I rank it neck and neck with SweeTango.
