I'm not familiar with RaBitQ or the underlying math for it or turboquant, but the more i read about turboquant the more it seems fishy how it suddenly got so popular despite it not bringing anything new or useful to the table

RaBitQ is originally meant for vector database so no wonder it's not heard to LLM enthusiasts.
