Terra lost to Sol and Luna at every cost/performance point, it had no reason to exist.

At introduction, Terra was a good mid-tier model. Terra [high] was on the pareto frontier of DeepSWE's score over cost, if only ever so slightly.

When I had Sol orchestrate Luna and Terra as implementation agents, Sol was a lot happier with what Terra produced and would find far fewer issues than what was implemented by Luna.

But a few weeks after introduction, OpenAI slashed Luna's cost by 80% and Terra's only by 20%. Only then did it become uneconomical to run Terra and its reason to exist stopped.
