I can somewhat understand companies getting users depentant on their harnesses or workflow, but model vendors as in this deepseek case, I have absolutely 0 model loyalty when it's a simple config change away, and will always optimize for either capability or price (or whatever !/$ metric you can determine).

Depends what you’re doing. For example, Gemini is somehow still your only option if you need a model that can natively understand video and reference timestamps in its response.

You're right, of course, but I would qualify this under "optimize for capability".
