I now see that I was comparing apples to oranges: iq2_xxs was using a weight of sigma^2/4 + x^2, while the Trellis approach wasn't (weight = 1). Once I use the same weight, iq2_kt is actually slightly worse than iq2_xxs in terms of rmse, so does not look promising at this point. Also, once each group of 8 Trellis values no longer has a constant sum(q^2) that we can precompute, quantization becomes significantly slower (476 seconds for LLaMA-3.1-8B).
