  "claim": "Three open System One releases in one week, three different answers to the same architectural question: where does the probability come from? Only one of them builds the scorer from scratch; the other two put a decision head on top of a general model. Every figure below is quoted from the release it belongs to.",
  "method": "Read from each project's own model card, dataset card, README and config on 2026-09-18, and re-checked on 2026-09-19 against the published artifacts themselves rather than the prose about them. Parameter counts and checkpoint sizes are the ones each project states; where a size and a count can be cross-checked against each other, the note says so. The calibration column was wrong in the first version: it read \"none\" for every row.",
  "captured": "2026-09-19",
  "note": "cua-s1-forms is the only one of the three whose parameter count and checkpoint size independently agree: 706,048 parameters at fp32 is 2,824,192 bytes, which is the 2.8 MB the card claims for state_dict plus config plus training history. That is a weak check, but it is the kind that catches a card written from memory rather than from the artifact — and reading that same sidecar is what corrected the calibration column. cua-s1-forms does publish an expected calibration error; it lives in metadata.best_validation, on a split where top-1 is 0.99941, which is where a near-zero ECE comes from. Bespoke's public suite, added the day after this article, is the first calibration measurement of Jev by anyone, and a competitor ran it.",
