I recall a Qwen exec posted a public poll on Twitter, asking which model from Qwen3.6 you want to see open-sourced; and the 27b variant was by far the most popular choice. Not sure why they ignored it lol.

The 27B model is dense. Releasing a dense model first would be terrible marketing, whereas 35A3B is a lot smarter and more quick-witted by comparison!

I'm guessing 3.5-27b would beat 3.6-35b. MoE is a bad idea. Because for the same VRAM 27b would leave a lot more room, and the quality of work directly depends on context size, not just the "B" number.
