 Creator here. Some honest context:
 
-The 82.5% number is from our own benchmark suite, not an independent evaluation. I'd love to see third-party replication. The benchmark tests ±1 tier accuracy: if the query should go to a mid-tier model and we route to a low-tier or high-tier, that counts as correct. Same metric RouteLLM uses.

 Why keyword matching works so well: LLM query classification is shallow. "Write Python code" is obviously a code query. "Translate this to French" is obviously translation. The edge cases where BERT helps — ambiguous queries that need semantic understanding — are maybe 10-15% of production traffic. Whether that's worth a 500MB model and GPU requirement depends on your scale.
