Pure fact-based, niche questions like that aren't really the focus of most providers any more from what I've heard, since they can be solved more reliably by integrating search tools (and all providers now have search).
I wouldn't be surprised if the smallest models can answer fewer such (fact-only) questions over time offline as they distill/focus them more thoroughly on logic etc.
