I quite like https://surgehq.ai/benchmarks/hemingway-bench

I wish this had non-model comparisons. If Opus 5 is in the top ten, it’s clear that the entire benchmark is somewhere between “Tom Clancy” and “Dan Brown” and about 1,000 new model releases away from Hemingway.

When you see, “Wow, Fable is number one”, you might think it’s a good writer, but that’s not what the benchmark says.

Seems to me a bit insensitive or logarithmic. Fable is way worse than some of the others in this list, but only 10-20% higher score.
