Yeah, I made the same argument but they seem convinced it's better to just provide their own naming instead of separating the two. Maybe marketing gets a bit easier when people believe them to be the same?

    ollama has their own way of releasing their models. 
    when you download r1 you get 7b. 
    this is due to not everyone is able to run 671b. 
    if its missleading then more likely due to user not reading.

I'm not super convinced by their argument to blame users for not reading, but after all it is their project so.

The conspiracy theorist in me thinks that it's deliberate sabotage of a Chinese model.
