Why the edge:
- Reach, Qwen3.5-0.8B +40: Qwen3.5-0.8B 80 (Memory earns the full 30, since LM Studio's Q4_K_M build with its projector is 0.73 GB (0.88 GB with the fifth added) and Ollama's Q8_0 build was 1.0 GB, both f…); SenseNova-Loop-9B-Preview 40 (Memory 15, the only build is the safetensors set, 38.14 GB with its MTP head, since the Hub counts 9.41B of its parameters in F32. Runtimes 0, none of the six r…)
- Documentation and upkeep, SenseNova-Loop-9B-Preview +7: Qwen3.5-0.8B 37 (The card covers six of the seven items, missing only a cut-off (17), because it states the intended uses and warns about thinking loops.); SenseNova-Loop-9B-Preview 44 (Model card 14, Intended use, the architecture, the parameter counts, the training context and the languages (in the metadata) are on the card.)
- Risk, Qwen3.5-0.8B +5: Qwen3.5-0.8B 55 (Safetensors only with no remote code gives file safety its 25, and files in the Qwen organisation the publisher's GitHub links to, each with a hash on the Hub…); SenseNova-Loop-9B-Preview 50 (File safety 15, safetensors only, no .bin, .pt or .pth files (25).)
