What it measures vs what it misses
✓ Measures
Ability to follow specified output constraints.

Adjacent capabilities, subjective preference, latency, and cost.
Why this countsIt tests whether the model is actually useful in normal conversational turns, not just on narrow correctness tasks.Same-test ruleThis percentile only compares models inside the exact benchmark/version group shown here. It is not a universal score.What it missesIt does not prove deeper reasoning, tool use, or enterprise workflow reliability.
