Wait WTF?! I thought performance was, well, performance, not
efficacy! OpenRouter's UI in this section is remarkably broken and unclear at the same time, and I have no idea where the author got those clean charts. "AutoExacto" numbers (completely meaningless name) are available for 6 providers, two of which are the same provider, and none of which are even in the top half throughput-wise. When you click "+28 more providers", it just shows a clearly broken modal. And the the next two graphs are even worse. Really all of these graphs are pretty and completely 100% useless.
I feel like it's absolutely insane that some providers serve the same model with much less efficacy. That doesn't make sense to me. What's going on?! I'm suddenly feeling intense shame for having routed all my non-subscription usage through them so far, and honestly some white hot anger that they would blatantly lie about something so important.
What am I missing? Is this really true?
