Its "pure capabilities" are definitely worse than Fable, but I find codex has a much more pleasant style and is in comparison much more generous with its limits.
It used to be true up to 2w ago, but with the new/reinstated 5h limits I wouldn't be so sure anymore...
Ugh, people are still saying the Codex limits are more generous. They're not, Claude's are over 2x higher, have been for months! [1] It's just that Claude uses far more tokens, 2-3x is common. Except sometimes GPT will use just as many or even go into a compact loop and then your quota is gone, little headroom for hard tasks.

Codex (+Sol) feels a lot more human for sure. Fable 5 is so, so wordy.
