arXiv:2605.30018v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) frequently achieve impressive scores on standardized benchmarks, yet accuracy alone offers a limited view of their capabilities. Evaluating open-source LLMs through leaderboards faces persistent issues like data contamination, narrow task scope, and weak alignment with real-world reliability. Benchmark-based evaluations such as MMLU PRO, BBH, or IFEval primarily capture \textit{what} a model outputs on fixed test sets, not \textit{how} it processes information, calibrates uncertainty, or structures internal knowledg
