Solar Pro 4 scores higher and costs less — but you would give something up.
+36.1 on the capability index and 30% cheaper ($0.052/M against $0.075/M). What you lose:

Capability scores do not measure context length, output ceiling or which inputs a model accepts, so a higher score does not mean a drop-in replacement.

Sources are listed separately rather than averaged. Across the 62 models both have scored they correlate at r = 0.806 — close agreement overall, but four models rank very differently between them, and a blended score would hide exactly those.
