What it measures vs what it misses

✓ Measures

Observed user preference when models edit the same source image under the same instruction. How well edits preserve intent while landing visually preferred outputs.

✗ Misses

Pixel-level preservation fidelity. Objective adherence scoring for localized edits or safety policies.

Why this countsIt would matter for editing and instruction-following once verified public receipts exist in the catalog.Comparable-group ruleThis percentile only compares models inside the exact benchmark/version group shown here. It is not a universal score.What it missesThis slice is currently limited because the product does not yet carry first-class image-editing receipts.
