MoE leaderboard shows two spikes: ~300 teams hit 2.4x using Vjeux's public kernels

The Open Kernel Challenge MoE leaderboard (1,349 teams) shows a striking two-spike distribution:
- A 1.3x spike: likely the ceiling of tuning SGLang's own kernel, where many teams cluster
- A 2.4x spike: about 300 teams sit between 2.32x and 2.42x, exactly where Vjeux and alygg77's public open-source kernels land — most are probably just running that code
Poster heeranshhh says agents got them to 1.33x, but Vjeux's public code took them to 2.40x. Vjeux himself admits he has never written a kernel and doesn't know what the code does — public kernels let non-experts reach near-top speedups.
