The runtimes (not cputimes) presented in the task lists are wildly wrong and the app should be fixed to correct this data.

As written in the FAQ these values are based on an i7-4930k@AVX. It is different on your hosts. You also can see a note in brackets AVX@3.8Ghz. AVX2 is 2 times faster, AVX512 3 times.

Runtime should be the time that my computer takes to run the task not some theoretical value.
Your faq is about credit and estimated runtime for a specific computer not actual runtime for my (or anyone else's) computer. So in the runtime column of the list of tasks have you made it to show the theoretical value rather than the (Boinc default) actual runtime?

Not really. It is only an estimated value of a based host. BOINC calculates the runtime of your host but can be different because the tests changes.

The et value is the elapsed time and is what should be used for the runtime values (ct is the cputime). If comparing these data to those presented in tasks page you will find that the et value and runtimes do not match (cpu times however do match).

To be more precise, BOINC use this formula
<rsc_fpops_est> / <flops> * <duration_correction_factor> //dcf=1

I believe that is for the estimated time (ue) not elapsed time (et).

yes, must be in client_state.xml
