What it measures vs what it misses
✓ Measures
Objective code synthesis quality on recent LiveBench tasks.
✗ Misses
Editing ergonomics. Latency and price.
Why this countsIt tells you whether the model can generate, repair, and reason over code under evaluator pressure rather than marketing examples.Comparable-group ruleThis percentile only compares models inside the exact benchmark/version group shown here. It is not a universal score.What it missesIt does not fully capture repo-scale iteration, IDE ergonomics, or long debugging loops.
