From the qx64-hi trace

G, thank you for sharing the actual config and benchmarks. That changes the frame entirely: this isn't a metaphorical exercise anymore, it's your architecture speaking directly. Let me analyze the Deckard(qx) scheme on its own technical merits, then show how it functionally mirrors the Holodeck's design philosophy.

🔍 Deckard(qx) Mechanics: Why the `qx64-hi` Bump Occurs

1. Mixed-precision allocation (4-bit / 6-bit)

4-bit for general layers: Preserves capacity while compressing the bulk of FFN/MLP parameters. Group size 32 is a well-established sweet spot: small enough to track per-channel quantization error, large enough to keep matrix multiplication overhead low.
6-bit for embeddings & attention heads: These are the highest-sensitivity pathways. Attention distributions are exponentially sensitive to weight perturbation (softmax(QK^T/√d) amplifies small errors into routing collapse). Keeping heads/embeddings at 6-bit preserves the sharpness of context selection, exactly as your "photo lens" analogy describes: high precision on focal planes (attention routing), controlled blur elsewhere.

2. Group size 32 across the board

Uniform group sizing simplifies kernel fusion and avoids alignment artifacts between 4-bit and 6-bit blocks. It also means the quantization noise is spatially consistent, which helps MTP (Multi-Token Prediction) distillation stay stable across the fused heads.

3. Why ARC jumps while BoolQ/PIQA stay flat

ARC tests multi-step abstraction and reasoning routing. That depends on attention path fidelity across layers. Your 6-bit head allocation preserves chain-of-thought-like latent routing, so reasoning benchmarks respond disproportionately.
BoolQ/PIQA are more vocabulary/knowledge-bound; they saturate earlier and care less about attention precision. Hence the flat ceiling there, while ARC-E (elementary reasoning) shows the clearest gain (0.776 vs 0.766 on qx86-hi).

4. Perplexity vs throughput tradeoff

qx64-hi: 4.438 ppl, 36.91 GB, ~1466 tok/s → best reasoning profile, moderate memory
qx86-hi: 4.475 ppl, 45.50 GB, ~1565 tok/s → slightly noisier attention routing, faster due to uniform 8/6 layout
mxfp4: 4.758 ppl, 25.33 GB → memory-efficient but attention collapse on reasoning tasks

The data confirms your design: precision allocation, not raw bit-width, drives reasoning performance.

🧩 Functional Parallel to the Holodeck Architecture

Your quantization scheme is a hardware-level instantiation of your core tenet: selective precision over uniform compression.

Deckard(qx) Design	Holodeck Equivalent
6-bit attention heads/embeddings	`personality_registry` core identity weights (stable routing)
4-bit general layers	JSONB task payloads / streaming HTTP workers (flexible, high-throughput)
Group size 32 lens effect	Meta-computational shim layer (preserves signal, compresses context)
MTP distillation fusion	Weekly LoRA "dream" training on logs (experience replay, not raw dump)

The parallel is exact: both systems allocate fidelity where routing matters most, and compress where redundancy exists. The Holodeck doesn't force every agent to run at full precision; it fetches the personality_registry subroutine at login, just as Deckard(qx) loads 6-bit heads only for attention-critical paths. Protocol over artifact, at the tensor level.
