Cost difference matters most as cost optimization is the whole point of AI. Time difference (30 min vs 1 hr) is not a deal-breaker. The small precision gap on the first iteration does not matter for 99% of the work that happens in real world.

Yes I 100% agree. Time-taken can be improved (with harnesses, subagent workflows etc.) and varies based on task.
