Question for people building or evaluating routed/blended model systems for Legal Analysis

When you route from one model to another, or blend one model with another, do you risk giving up the distinctive strengths of the first model?

For example, if an input that would otherwise go to Opus is routed to Sonnet, Fable, GPT, etc., do you lose some or all of Opus’s advantages on the legal tasks where Opus is especially strong?

And if you blend Opus with those models, does the blend tend to preserve Opus’s strengths, or can it dilute them?

Does the framework matter? For example, is there a meaningful difference between:

• a worker/advisor setup,
• two workers with an adjudicator,
• router-first selection,
• or some other ensemble/blending architecture?

This is a genuine question for building Legal AI. I don’t have anything to promote.
