About a year ago I was testing Gemini 2.5 Pro and Gemini 2.5 Flash for agentic coding. I found they could both do the same task, but Gemini Pro was way slower and more expensive.

This blew my mind because I'd previously been obsessed with "best/smartest model", and suddenly realized what I actually wanted was "fastest/dumbest/cheapest model that can handle my task!"
