I am sorry but the whole "biological memory" thing seems like marketing fluff on basic cache mechanisms.

You said it cuts token usage by 84% but isn't that typical for any typical chunked RAG system?

And why did you specifically chose to test against the LoMoCo dataset when there's a lot of issues with it and it being very easy to cheat?
