Why the edge:
- Documentation and upkeep, Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B +34: Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B 70 (The model card earns 20, all seven items with limitations in the linked subcard.); Ornith-1.5-122B 36 (Model card 11, it covers intended use, architecture, parameters and context but not limitations, languages or a knowledge cut-off.)
- Risk, Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B +15: Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B 65 (File safety earns 15, safetensors only but with 10 off because the documented serving commands pass trust-remote-code and the repository ships model and parser…); Ornith-1.5-122B 50 (File safety 25, safetensors and GGUF only and no Python in any of Ornith's repositories for this size, so the card's --trust-remote-code flag loads nothing from…)
- Agent interface, Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B +5: Nemotron 3 Super 120B A12B 90 (The chat template earns 20, a Jinja file in the repository.); Ornith-1.5-122B 85 (Chat template 20, a Jinja file in the repository.)
