It's not funny, it's a way to promote something of your own, but to attract an audience you have to tell them first what they want to hear, and when the co-founder of Apple says Bitcoin is "the most amazing mathematical miracle", people are thrilled and sure will take a look at his project. In other words, "Bitcoin is a miracle, but I have something even better."
By the way, Steve Wozniak has become known to the crypto community in 2018 when he fell for a cheap trick and lost as many as 7 BTC, which does not really portray him as an intelligent man - because if he had the attitude he has today, he would certainly have acted differently.
I watched some of his intervews, most of them interviews included in documentaries about Steve Jobs. Steve Wozniak came across as someone naive, and easily swindled from his money. He also had his own story about Steve Jobs commission an engineering job for him while he was with Atari. Jobs never paid him the full amount.
