I find Fable completely unbeatable for anything code-related. It's the only frontier model that seems to come with sane defaults.
If it implements something simple like a file export, it just knows that the file should have a meaningful name. Vibecoded feature beats most software's lazy "untitled.png".
So, yes, I want the smartest model even for simple stuff. Maybe especially for simple stuff because the tokens burned will be trivial so the cost doesn't give lower models a comparative advantage.
