Four models, one page

Pick the models you are actually choosing between. Every row is scaled within itself, so a bar means something next to its neighbours and nothing across rows.

Rows marked “lower is better” still draw a longer bar for a larger number — read the value, not just the length. Arena Elo is in the specification table above instead: it has no meaningful zero, so a bar would flatten the gaps.

A missing bar means that evaluation was not run for that model — it is not a zero.
