On par in some categories. Phi was intended for reasoning, not storing data, due to small size. I mean, it's still great, but the smaller it gets, the more facts from outside of the prompts context will not be known at all.
It depends what you want to do. If you want a chat bot that can replace most Google queries, you want as much learned data as possible and the whole Wikipedia consumed. If you want a RAG style system, you want good reasoning about the context and minimal-or-no references to extra information. It's neither positive nor negative without a specific use case.
