Was this finetune done to retain the level of thinking of the base so we can have proper xhigh reasoning?

As i posted in another reply on the previous qwen3.8-27b finetune discussion forum, the proper xhigh reasoning allows a native qwen3.8-27b to outperform/match frontier models in the intelligence scoring on AA.

Was this retained here?

I put in a req to test (i'd love to guinea pig your finetunes with @nightmedia as i have some harnesses set up for quantization and MTP work if provided the raw nuslerp recipe data and sources).

Thanks!

Yes ; the reasoning compression/training was done with this specifically in mind.

It is not perfect ; but as close as we could get and reduce the raw "average" usage of reasoning tokens and keep Team Qwen's excellent upgrades in core reasoning.
This was tested again Qwen 3.8's untrained version VS Cold Fusion edition at all 3 reasoning modes.

Focus was on maintaining the raw details levels (and sheer amount of detail).
