The bike knows my height and weight and that’s about it. From that it can calculate how my body burns calories?

Every body is very different, so I don’t see how any calculation can be accurate.

    Your muscles’ efficiency varies widely on short exercise bursts, and very little on long, constant sessions.

    It’s not clear to me what the bike is calibrated to, I’d say it’s correct to set it for long sessions, but I’d expect them to vary widely from one mode to another.
