 Some noteworthy observations:
 
-- Pairing o1-preview as Senior with Deepseek as Junior sets a SOTA significantly above the previous best score. This result is obtained with Deepseek using the "whole" editing format, requiring it to output a full update copy of each edited source file. Both of these steps are therefore quite slow, so probably not practical for interactive use with aider.
