# OxMini ablation samples These are the unedited fixed-prompt generations from the three matched 120-step runs (seed 1337, top-k 40). They are preserved to make the qualitative comparison auditable rather than reducing it to a subjective summary. ## Plain GPT baseline ### `ROMEO:\n`, temperature 0.7 ```text ROMEO: ABEVIUU o d He indRTIad ratomenwerein un mangcou ad rind MESinee d KOKL'ades th ``` ### `ROMEO:\n`, temperature 1.0 ```text ROMEO: Yerm: -h TAVooceoom t to ieund, qA!

Hybrid and full OxMini emit more word-like fragments and slightly more stable speaker formatting than baseline, consistent with their lower held-out loss, but the difference is not strong enough to claim useful language ability. The full mHC-lite arm is not visibly better than hybrid-only.
