Does Gemma 4 26B-A4B UD-Q2_K_XL + 1024-token thinking as the deep tier (arm G) match or beat Qwen3.6-35B-A3B + thinking (control T, DEEPTHINK) on V-para, and is it faster (BETTER / PARITY-FASTER / NO)?

From the record

What was tested
GEMMATHINK
Result
−0.028 (−0.057…+0.003)
Verdict
closed: rule failed, CI excluded the hoped-for gain, a step-0 gate failed, or the mechanism was falsified
