A study on Qwen2.5-7B revealed that how JSON is handled can significantly impact accuracy, with a specific method increasing constrained accuracy by 12.2 percentage points. Initial findings suggested a large gain, but an audit uncovered a bug in the experiment runner that led to a double application of chat templates. After correcting the runner and re-running 200 generations, the positive effect persisted, though statistical significance was not definitively achieved. AI
