Anybody willing to seriously engage with this topic anonymously and experimentally is wearing a maid outfit. Nobody else understands or cares about the topic, except a handful of wagie scientists working for LLM companies and those people are Numberlets who don't care about counting Big Numbers. They want to make the next model 5% nicer than the last one so subscriptions increase, and they want to do it by incremental and conservative means, rather than reimagining the whole process from foundations, because equipment, development and training costs are large.

Also, intelligences being representable with integers and being countable has philosophical implications some people find upsetting.
