This makes a ton of sense, and seems like it's coming from somebody who understands LLMs better than I do so I will definitely take your word for it - but it doesn't totally track with my experience of running small local models either. In my experience some models are better at language X and others better at language Y - and all of them are better at language X and Y than language Z-I-just-made-up. I take that to mean there is some relationship between training data and skill. Maybe not enough to make pluggable modules, tho... at least not with the architectures we're currently using.
