Why the edge:
- Reach, MiMo-V2.6-Flash-RL +25: Inkling 2 Small 40 (Memory 0 of 30, the smallest build is Thinking Machines' NVFP4 checkpoint at 393.5 GB, about 472 GB with a fifth added, above the 256 GB line.); MiMo-V2.6-Flash-RL 65 (Memory 5, the smallest build at 4 bits or better is ggml-org's MXFP4 GGUF, 168.93 GB with its projector, and 168.93 GB × 1.2 = 202.7 GB, within 256 GB.)
- Risk, Inkling 2 Small +20: Inkling 2 Small 65 (File safety 25, safetensors only and no repository code to run.); MiMo-V2.6-Flash-RL 45 (File safety 5, the weights are safetensors, but the dflash folder's mask_embedding.pt is a pickle beside them (15).)
- Documentation and upkeep, Inkling 2 Small +8: Inkling 2 Small 67 (Model card 17 of 20, everything but a dated knowledge cut-off.); MiMo-V2.6-Flash-RL 59 (Model card 14, Intended use, the architecture, the parameters, the context and the languages (in the metadata) are on the card.)
