Most omnivores and carnivores won't touch humans with a ten foot pole either. But that's because they're either too smart to try or we have altered their genetic makeup by culling anyone who strayed too close.

The more interesting finding is that it's still the second most expensive model (after Fable 5) by a long shot. At least two models (GPT-5.6, Kimi K3) match its score (~1-2% diff) for half the cost.
