These adoption and deployment observations remain context only. They do not change this model's ModelCap Index score or rank.

The bounded 0–100 capability score blends each source’s competitive placement with its published achievement, then combines capability families. Evidence breadth adds a modest uncertainty adjustment; price and popularity are not part of benchmark-led rank.
