I understood what you intended there. Yea, I know - it wasn't a good comparison, I should have said that. Frequently manu specs are way off, like ThruNite kcd #'s on their throwers. There's also the variations from piece to piece out there, even in name brands. I' know I've gotten under performing Nitecores in the past - I ordered 2 EA41's together a while back and one was maybe 10-15% lower than the other, and about the same percent under it's specs.
In theory though, the P30 with it's lower "spec'd" lumens and smaller reflector should throw less.
Dale measured the P30 at 115 kcd and 1,050 lumens here: https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/42527/22, and I trust his numbers.
