You speak of incredible success without given a success rate of the models. The fact that there are a dozen cases where specific models outperformed human reasoning doesn't prove much.

At the moment you recommend other people to use SPRs for their decision making based on "expert judgment". How about providing us a SPR that tells us for which problems we should use SPRs?
