I don't understand which model is supposed to be better. I think Carbon is the big model and Hydrogen the Flash equivalent? Only because of a Twitter leak though. Like I have no earthly idea based on the naming.

Carbon = bigger, Hydrogen = smaller.

Ignore all other models.

Argon is noble gas so it doesn't interact with any other models.

		Seems weird to pick a name that is so much a noble gas, and then not have the other names follow it. Is that because Nitrogen doesn't have parameters enough? Or Neon being a weird model name if it came to that? And why not Helium, instead of Hydrogen? Is that supposed to indicate rock-bottom pricing? What about the cheap cheap 3.1-flash-lite for pipelines then? Will they phase it out, and replace it with Hydrogen as the new lower price range? None of it makes sense!

But hydrogen makes fusion. Carbon is soot. Hydrogen is more explosive too. About be better.

And argon? Are we going on atomic number or is it the noblest and thus cleverest, or is it the most chilled out model that doesn’t over react

From the company that brought us Android ice cream sandwich though, I guess these are their clearest names yet!

I guess carbon has a higher atomic number than hydrogen? It's definitely the least intuitive of all the naming schemes...

Which doesn't explain Argon which is the same cost as Carbon while being worse.

		Yeah I mean it's baffling to me too. I just want them to release a Sol/Opus-tier model so I can do useful stuff with ramming into the usage limits.

		because Carbon is fine tuned version they are same base model

It's sorted by electronegativity.

I thought it was just sorted alphabetically so Argon < Carbon < Hydrogen.
