Three Days, Four Wrong Hypotheses, and One Uncensored 27B That Finally Serves on a Single RTX 5090

No NVFP4 build of the uncensored Qwen3.8-27B existed, so I made one. It took a fake-quantization scare, a rename odyssey across 800 tensors, an MTP file that quietly loaded the vision tower twice, and one instrumented container run that proved everything I believed was wrong. 40 tok/s single stream, 317 tok/s with 8 concurrent subagents.
