The press and news are talking about R1 while what you've been testing is the "distilled" version.
Sadly, Ollama has a bit of a confusing messaging about this, and it isn't super obvious you're not actually testing the model that "comes close to GPT-4o" or whatever the tagline is, but instead testing basically completely different models. I think this can explain the mismatch in expectation vs reality here.
