I wonder if it's a harness thing or a model thing at this point. I feel all coding models are quite capable for most tasks I want them to do.

Most of the time I don't need what the bench tests and I'm not really giving them completely ambiguous tasks without any refinement.

I only find marginal differences between models at this point and it almost feels like personality quirks in each model than anything.

True but it has a niche in SQL reviews for me. Looks like Google has a lot of good sql in their corpus and in their RL digital lobotomy factory.

I did a test involving implementing cobol control flow in Java for a source to source translation project. Gemini was the only model to get the edge cases. Cobol is very peculiar in this regard.
