Choose for the work.
The supplied comparison says neither model crushed the other. Test that idea yourself: predict what matters, weight the criteria, and let the arithmetic expose your assumptions.
1. Define the task
Weights must total 100. Scores are your task-specific estimates, not verified benchmark facts.
Weights total 100.
2. Make a prediction
Score each model from 0 to 10 before reading the result. A score is a local assumption you can revise.

Your result will show the weighted arithmetic after you make a prediction.
Assessment: change quality from 60% to 90% after the first result. Explain whether the winner changes and why.
Values persist locally.
Why the split matters
Misconception: half the tokens automatically means better value.
Correction: token use is one criterion; quality, price, latency, and retries can change the decision.
Misconception: four agents automatically produce a better answer.
Correction: parallel work helps only when independent results can be combined and checked.
