What this is: redux2 EDGE variant -- max abliteration preservation under 4 GB Trial: Best Pareto trial from redux2 (50-trial Heretic + projection_pass_v2) Quant scheme: tier1 (8-bit affine, group 64) : mlp.down_proj on ALL 36 layers (residual-stream writer, heavily modified by projection_pass_v2) tier2 (6-bit affine, group 64) : self_attn.o_proj on LATE layers (12-35) only (the layers projection_pass_v2 actually touched -- their weights drifted enough from ternary to tolerate affine quant) rest : 2-bit ternary (zero-preserving custom scheme) Why "Lo6": "Late-layer o_proj at 6-bit". Restricting to layers 12-35 avoids the redux1-mixed-do6 failure mode where ALL 36 attn.o_proj at 6-bit broke the model (early layers are too-close-to-pure-ternary; 6-bit affine has no zero level). Config: rope_theta=1000000.0, rope_scaling=yarn (MLX-LM compatible)
