Cheap means small, small means low Q&A scores. I know that this isn't that important for the majority of applications, but I feel that over-reliance on RAG whenever Q&A performance is discussed is quite misleading.
Being able to clearly and correctly discuss science topics, to write about art, to understand nuances in (previously unseen) literature, etc. is impossible simply through powerful-reasoning + RAG, and so many advanced use cases would be enabled by this. Sonnet 3.5+ and GPT 4.5 are still unparalleled here, and it's not even close.
