With, but it's still bonkers that it works so well

>Also is there a practical motivation for creating them?

You could get in-between model sizes (like 20b instead of 13b or 34b). Before better quantization it was useful for inference (if you are unlucky with vram size), but now I see this being useful only for training because you can't train on quants
