The point isn't about leaderboard. With increasing context length, the question is on whether we need embeddings or not. With longer context length, embeddings is no longer a necessity, and it lowers its value.

The US Code is on the order of tens of millions of tokens and I shudder to think how many billions of tokens make up all the judicial opinions that set or interpreted precedent.
