And GPT 5.6 Sol over engineers just about everything. No LLM is perfect, its about learning the issues with each LLM and figuring out if you can live with it. Knowledge means that you can anticipate if it tries to pull something funny, and harness it against that behavior.

this would be _Great_ advice if you owned your own LLM and your knowledge was trapped in Amber because you were satisfied.
It's horrible advice given what we've seen consistent: changing alignments, changing guardrails, changing system prompts, changing inference priorities, etc.
Anyone who relies on these for their work product is chaining themselves to a matrix multiple of indetermintism.
Sure, but I am a long time Opus user 4.5,4.6,4.7,4.8 and I wonder what's wrong with 5?
