Worth underlining that designers work very hard to understand the needs of the particular situation.

Usually type designers consider the legibility of 3, 6, 8, 9, 0 (particularly 8 and 0) to be more important than between O and 0. But for coders, the ambiguity between O and 0 is a big problem, so a designer would consider that.

An example for pilots: you are heading 180 and radio it as "one zero eight". Even if you immediately correct yourself, it's a problem.

The leaflet (https://github.com/polarsys/b612/blob/master/docs/B612-Leafl...) explains the design thinking behind this. They call them "light traps", though I'm not totally convinced they work well when antialiasing is used.

What does it mean to have less active parameters (36B) than the full model size (132B) and what impact does that have on memory and latency? It seems like this is because it is an MoE model?
