While I wish the models were glazing less, I don't think I want them pushing back more until they get smarter. The current Opus situation where it questions good, thought-out decisions is a bit mad. It may be better if the model asked about your thought process or motivations behind certain things but I don't think I want to explain myself to an LLM all the time either.

Recent example: I asked Opus for some kind of reference data for MTBF in software. It took a few minutes to do "research", ended up providing zero data, and gave me a long essay on how DORA is superior and I should be using that instead. When I clarified that we're thinking of adding MTBF next to our existing DORA metrics, it decided I need to be thought about SLOs... if it was the first time, I may have continued clarifying but since it wasn't, I just gave up on Claude for this topic.
