Why the edge:
- Reach, Swift 1.5 Qwen3.8-Flash-Next +25: Kimi K3.1 Pro 40 (Memory 0, the only build is Moonshot's 1,561 GB MXFP4 release, far above 256 GB.); Swift 1.5 Qwen3.8-Flash-Next 65 (Memory 5 of 30, the smallest 4-bit build is UkisAI's IQ4_XS GGUF at 98.6 GB with the vision projector, 118.3 GB with a fifth, above the reference machine's GPU…)
- Documentation and upkeep, Kimi K3.1 Pro +11: Kimi K3.1 Pro 51 (Model card 11, no limitations, languages or cut-off.); Swift 1.5 Qwen3.8-Flash-Next 40 (Model card 5 of 20, intended use and context only.)
- Risk, Kimi K3.1 Pro +5: Kimi K3.1 Pro 50 (File safety 15, safetensors only, less 10 for remote code and prompts built by the repository's script.); Swift 1.5 Qwen3.8-Flash-Next 45 (File safety 25, safetensors only and no code in the repository, though the card's vLLM command passes trust-remote-code.)
- Agent interface, Kimi K3.1 Pro +5: Kimi K3.1 Pro 65 (Chat template 10, the format is only code to run.); Swift 1.5 Qwen3.8-Flash-Next 60 (Chat template 20, the base's Jinja file.)
