Judging Gemma 4 and Nemotron 3 Nano Omni on 100 of My Own Images, Not a Benchmark Score

Heron-Bench and JMMMU headline scores are the wrong input for an adoption decision on local Japanese multimodal models. Using a wallpaper classifier as the case, here is how to build a 100-image eval set, weight errors by what they actually cost, and catch regressions when you re-quantize.
