seems really dumb and like it would need to violate basic information theory to work?

input tokens are cheaper than output tokens. seems like it would maybe reduce input tokens at the expense of many more output tokens if you're actually triggering OCR via thinking?

It's far from being a foolish idea, and it seems to me that the project correctly documents its own limitations. It's rare to see a README list so precisely where the tool falls short. Then, yes, input tokens are cheaper than output. But when it comes to find ways to get reduce costs, you have to explore all the options.
