These are both good points that I attempted to cover, quotes:

> In practice, the efficient frontier is very jagged. Rather than a smooth, continuous line between outcomes, small changes can have big impacts. These cutoff points are often unintuitive and must be discovered empirically through sweeps.

> However, quantization introduces a new set of tradeoffs between quality and serving efficiency. This is a particularly jagged frontier, where a large degree of improvement to serving efficiency is possible with little-to-no reduction in model quality, especially when using microscaling floating-point number formats like MXFP4 and NVFP4.

Would appreciate ideas on how to explain in greater depth
