FP8 weight scales are data-free. What the calibration variety changes is the static per-tensor activation scales, exported as input_scale. Sibling checkpoints -fp8-msa, -fp8-gulf and -fp8-mixed differ in exactly that and nothing else.

Not loadable by plain transformers — config.json declares quantization type modelopt.
