It's interesting that the benchmark they are choosing to emphasize (in the one chart they show and even in the "fast" name of the model) is token output speed.

I would have thought it uncontroversial view among software engineers that token quality is much important than token output speed.

I agree. Coding faster than humans can review it is pointless. Between fast, good, and cheap, I'd prioritize good and cheap.

Fast is good for tool use and synthesizing the results.
