Are you trying to say that local models are hard to use because... you're having issues handling files properly? I am not sure I get the argument.

I get the rest of the comment: local models require an investment upfront, and it is less convenient. It doesn't say that it is not cheaper, though.

I guess they were using ollama, which does not tell you where it puts the models it downloads.
