not an expert by any means, but wouldn't smaller but highly refined models also output more reproducible results?
intuitively it sounds akin to the unix model...
But then again the main selling point of using LLMs as part of some code that solves a certain business need is that you don't have to finetune a usecase-specific model (like in the mid 2010s), you just prompt engineer a bit and it often magically works.
