Cost Enterprise local

Best operational default for local routing because it is much faster while still competent.

Strengths
  • Much faster average latency
  • Good enough reasoning for practical deployment choices
  • Better default for concurrency and operational headroom
Weaknesses
  • Missed the Bird-first routing rule in this run
  • Slightly weaker precision on routing judgment
  • Still wrapped strict JSON in code fences
Operator read

Much faster than 31B while remaining competent enough for local routing, extraction, and structured background work.
