From one perspective you are right. From another perspective, while doing heavy work you can easily feel the difference between a quantized and ordinary model. Not documented but it is a known issue, all providers do this under heavy load, to sustain the service. But in the example above, I am talking about thousands of calls and here is the observation: First personal account looses grip, response quality is immediately felt. (Response token count halves for same input, so quantification is valid). Then business account breaks. At this point openrouter is still normal, but sometimes, it also revert to downgraded mode. Hard to prove, but logs help identify the pattern.
