They're quite selective in benchmarks, c.f. notably only bad one is 10% on TerminalBench. It's a really addled model, one time I said "Hi" and it built out a 4 panel hello world app with (fake) weather, a todo list, and a couple other things I forgot. I wouldn't be comfortable saying "ignore the #s!" except when I complained it was trash and way overcooked on agentic coding yet not good at it, and a couple DeepMind ML people liked the tweet.

i discount people who lean too heavily into benchmark as the authoritative truth when it comes to evaluation of coding capability of these models.

experience tells me that those people simply have not used models for a long period of time specifically on coding and have run their own comparisons

to someone who uses all vendors, the differences are very palpable and drives purchase decisions.

also keep in mind Gemini and other labs have repeatedly done benchmaxxing, you must have your own benchmarks to evaluate these models.
