I see what you mean, but if you think about it for a second, analytical would measure the actual performance, and would put an actual "number" on it, where comparative would only give you a rough (but valid) measure of "which is better".
If I use a car analogy here for a second... Picture yourself at a stop sign, in your fat/beefed up Mustang, and some kid pulls up next to you, in some fancy decorated Honda, and he's rev'ing his engine.
From my perspective, I'm going to find out pretty quickly which one of you is the fastest. On the other hand, if I had the proper instruments, I could measure your quarter mile time, and take it anywhere for comparison.
