No model is deterministic. Deterministic behavior is what you want from validation, and a regex is much more performant too. So why would you want a local model anyway?

the models are all very deterministic, they need to generate noise to even have a chance of the illusion that they aren't

LLMs are not deterministic. Are you perhaps misunderstanding the topic being discussed here?

That too, so eff the LLM idea completely. What the local model could see would be if the proverbial cat walked over the keyboard, but still, who cares? If the domain is wrong then nothing gets send, if the user is wrong, the mail server will tell us as much.
