Short-read callers recover most validated driver fusions in haematologic cell lines but differ by orders of magnitude in review burden. Long-read callers score far lower in an independent benchmark. No comparison covers solid tumours or FFPE tissue.
One pretrained genomic model can look dominant on a leaderboard and lose to a linear baseline on the next task. Two evidence ledgers explain why.
