Grok 4.7 tipped as 2.1T model, but benchmarks show no token-efficiency gain over 4.6

Quoting theo's report that Grok 4.7 will be a 2.1T-parameter model beating 4.6 across the board (slower to serve but more token-efficient), teortaxesTex argues xAI follows Elon's rapid-rebuild playbook — shipping base models fast but leaving them under-debugged, with 4.6 a step up from 4.5 while 4.7 starts from scratch. He notes no benchmark yet shows 4.7 more token-efficient than 4.6.
