alt Hacker NewsWhat jonas21 is stating is correct. If you have the absolute best performance, you are automatically on the Pareto frontier because you’re the most cost effective one (or the only model) on that performance tier.

Huh, I guess you're right, but I interpreted jonas21's comment in relation to the above comment, which was about all models running on Max (which implies this would be a comment relating to all points on the pareto curve).
It is true that the model with the overall best performance is on the Pareto frontier, but it is not necessarily true that a given model's best cost-performance tradeoff is at max reasoning. (IE you could have a model that is on the frontier at medium reasoning, but at max reasoning becomes more expensive and not sufficiently good enough to remain on the frontier.)
