I have more faith in ATK than WC, but unfortunately I can't be lazy and blindly trust them anymore.
Teak for one has a good amount of silica in it. Idk about you, but a large reason I use wood is to avoid things like plastic and other substances getting into my food. Silica while not fiber glass is still used for fire retardant.
I also question their testing methods in general. Talk to wood workers or go to small wood working forums. Teak is constantly wearing down their equipment.
I think most people won't notice the difference between teak and maple for instance. However, I question the popularity of these.
Personally after way too much research I went with a Larch wood cutting board. You can easily find the Canadian company that makes them on Google.
I checked the board out. It's a lot of thin planks joined together. I prefer a single slab so that there's only wood, no glue on my board. That way I'm not eating glue over time. The same reason I avoid plastic cutting boards

As far as the glue used on cutting boards, it will be a waterproof PVA glue (like titebond 3). This glue is FDA rated for indirect food contact and is waterproof. A good joint with PVA glue is stronger than the wood itself.

1. face grain - a single piece of wood edge like you describe. This is the cheapest style and will wear the fastest.
2. edge grain - several boards stacked together on their edges, like the board in this post. A good middle ground that will wear slower.
3. end grain - several boards stacked together on their ends. This is the most expensive style and wears the slowest. It can self heal to some extent with knife edges. It's also thirsty for cutting board oil but can last long enough to pass on to your heirs. A well known brand that makes these is Boos.

I'd be interested in what aspects of this testing you feel were misguided. In terms of "bias," their methodology will tell you what they chose to bias (base their decision on).
Teak is a desirable wood for cutting boards. Because it is naturally oily, it will require less maintenance and is generally thought of as the most hygienic wood for cutting boards. There are several other species of hard woods and medium hard woods that are great as well.
Thanks OP!

id rather trust hundreds of wood workers over PBS chefs make-shift tests. Again, I've seen their videos and even did a trial to go through their list that is behind a paywall.

You might be mistaking this for breathing in dust from crystalline silica, which is not what is going on here. You could even eat silica gel packs which are nontoxic (but isn't recommended).

Here is your quote:
"Teak for one has a good amount of silica in it. ldk about you, but a large reason use wood is to avoid things like plastic and other substances getting into my food. Silica while not fiber glass is still used for fire retardant."
A fair reading of that would takeaway that you are implying that teak should be avoided because it has silica, and silica is toxic and would be getting in your food. This is an unsubstantiated claim that is not supported by facts.
Silica in your food is not a health concern.
