Over-refusal pushes users to uncensored open models: 'working is less of a headache'

A Reddit user says mainstream models like Qwen keep refusing benign coding requests borrowed from team projects, so they switched to an uncensored community finetune (Qwen3.8-27B-Heretic). Despite being a roleplay-oriented finetune, it handles their tasks without notable performance loss — another data point on over-refusal driving users to uncensored local models.
