I wrote a blog yesterday on how useless RTK and Ponytail are on real coding tasks. And published my agent harness long-horizon task benchmarks on 80% real token saving.

I just want to know why people just ignore the fact those pulgins are useless and don't care about the real savings?

full reports are on my repo: https://github.com/Tura-AI/tura
