>One of OpenRouter's main points is that it allows you to bypass individual AI vendors' downtimes.

Nope, for closed models too. Claude for example has multiple providers they work with. Google Vertex, Amazon Bedrock and Anthropic themselves all provide inference for Claude.

The vast majority of models on OpenRouter (both closed and open) have multiple providers.
