Somehow completely missed that, thanks!

I think reading this makes it even clearer that the 70.3% score should just be discarded from the benchmarks. "I got a 7%-8% higher SWE benchmark score by doing a bunch of extra work and sampling a ton of answers" is not something a typical user is going to have already set up when logging onto Claude and asking it a SWE style question.

Personally, it seems like an illegitimate way to juice the numbers to me (though Claude was transparent with what they did so it's all good, and it's not uninteresting to know you can boost your score by 8% with the right tooling).
