Every Jev clone copied the same flaw, and it isn't the price.

I’ve been looking at the recent wave of System 1 decision models following Jev, and this is the issue I keep coming back to. Every Jev clone copied the same flaw, and it isn't the price. Jev shipped Sept 15. Three weeks later: 14 System 1 models. Cloudflare. Perplexity. OpenAI. Liquid. Upstage. Together. Inception. A dozen more. All the same contract: Choice, Score, Noul. Prices already at $0. They copied the format. They also copied the flaw. Jev's own docs admit decisions that don't add up. A question and its negation don't sum to 1. The model can be confidently wrong in two directions at once, with no way to say, "I don't know." A cheaper token doesn't fix that. A bigger context window doesn't either. Only coherence does: forcing the answers to agree with each other. Everyone's racing to be the cheapest copy. The market is the one that knows when it's wrong.
