Why the edge:
- Reach, LFM3-Omni-2B +20: DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 60 (Memory scores nothing, because the only build is DeepSeek's own at 510.3 GB, about 612 GB with the fifth added, and nobody's runtime library holds a smaller one…); LFM3-Omni-2B 80 (Memory 30, Liquid's Q4_K_M GGUF is 1.10 GB with its 0.29 GB projector file, and 1.39 GB × 1.2 = 1.7 GB, which fits 8 GB, well inside the 16 GB line.)
- Risk, DeepSeek V4.1 Flash +10: DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 50 (The weights are safetensors only, but 10 comes off because the card's way to build prompts is running encoding.py from the repository, since there's no Jinja te…); LFM3-Omni-2B 40 (File safety 15, safetensors only, no .bin, .pt or .pth files (25).)
- Agent interface, DeepSeek V4.1 Flash +5: DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 75 (There's no Jinja template in the 17 October repository, only code to run, so the template line gets 10. DeepSeek documents the DSML tool format both ways and sh…); LFM3-Omni-2B 70 (Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository (13,513 characters), with roles, images, video and audio, tools, deferred tools and tool results.)
