I work with Sol and Astra only in my daily work, and occasionally I check out Claude Code so I don't get completely out of touch.
I can't stand the way Opus is patronizing me as a user, and don't know how people put up with it. It uses language that I guess is supposed to instill confidence in what it says, and it just irks me, because I know the confidence is not justified. Just present me the facts or theories, without trying to convince me, is that so hard?
Opus is the worst at it. Fable 5 still does it a little. Fable 5.1 is much improved, at least.
You have to use Fable or Opus 4.6 for tolerable language output.
Using Opus 4.7-5 is harmful for your health.
It's bad enough I stopped paying.

Claude's use of language is hideous at this point. It is verging on gibberish wrapped in important-sounding prose.
