Any experience w/ Haiku-4.5? Your "heavy Claude code user" and "speed" comment gave me hope you might have insights. TIA

Not GP but my experience with Haiku-4.5 has been poor. It certainly doesn't feel like Sonnet 4.0 level performance. It looked at some python test failures and went in a completely wrong direction in trying to address a surface level detail rather than understanding the real cause of the problem. Tested it with Sonnet 4.5 and it did it fine, as an experienced human would.
