It is not a competitor to those it competes with Sonnet.

Google's Opus competitor is 3.1 Pro Preview which is essentially obsolete (competed with Opus 4.6). They do not have a Fable/Sol competitor.

I wasn't aware of this. Seems Google is lagging the big 3 (Anthropic, xAI, OpenAI) when it comes to frontier models for programming and hard problem solving.

I guess Google's betting on consumers being price-elastic (preferring to tradeoff intelligence for significant cost savings)
