>> 100k tokens is an absurdly low cutoff and it is only applicable to Haiku and not Sonnet or Opus. It's a low enough cutoff that it will be quickly exceeded if you are doing anything with Agents

Your vibes don't appear to be supported by facts. From the announcement:

>> Claude Haiku 5.5 is priced 90% lower than Claude Haiku 4.5 for requests up to 100,000 tokens, and 50% lower for requests over 100,000 tokens. On Haiku 4.5, 90% of requests fell into the former category.

People weren't using Haiku 4.5 for agents before. 5.5 is good enough that it might be.

Haiku 4.5 users were using it for Kleenex requests because that was the best it could do.
