They -are- very rubbery figures, a rubber thumb :-).
More of a minimum you could expect based -just- on the raw gear rather 
than maximum. I have no problem being wrong in the good direction :-)

Subject to class buffs/nerfs , instance tweaks, additional itemisation, 
the distribution of subpar ilvl slots, player organisation.
Some chars can solo prior xpac 5 man content, others can't.

576, currently, are likely more skilled at a character than a 500 and 
have invested more in top of range/most expensive gems/enchants, 
valo(u)r upgrades.

A little leeway to change rotation, or discovering a better rotation, 
can improve delivered dps drastically.
i.e. Skill is knowing how to create the right circumstances.
