contents State-of-the-art models rely on massive widths despite exhibiting low Intrinsic Dimension (ID). We posit that this redundancy serves the non-convex optimization search rather than the final representation. We validate this hypothesis by decoupling the solution geometry via data-independent random projections, demonstrating that ResNet, ViT, and BERT representations can be compressed by up to 16x with negligible performance degradation of around 1%. Notably, these oblivious projections achieve parity with PCA and learned baselines, confirming the solution manifold is intrinsically robust. These findings establish the foundation for Subspace-Native Distillation: a paradigm where student models target this intrinsic manifold directly, bypassing the high-dimensional optimization bottleneck to realize the vision of "Train Big, Deploy Small"
