The predictive power for masses of a recently published highly extrapolatable semiempirical shell model mass equation is compared to that of several current mass models and some differences are noted and addressed. The equation is shown to describe rather well the energies of several seemingly well-identified \ensuremathα-decay chains with known end product nuclei observed in superheavy elements research. The equation is also applied to the interpretation problem of some recent hot fusion-evaporation experiments with unknown end products and several conceivable reaction channels. Some plausible interpretations are indicated.
