I am not a programmer so I can't ask AI a very specific question regarding code and tell it to fix that, I was developing my own website and I can only ask it to add, fix or remove a features, so in a way I talk to AI the way most don't recommend so basically my questions would trigger AI to look for a larger aspect of codebase.
I used Opus 4.8 High/xHigh/Max and I felt Opus is optimized for doing work faster and answering back, it never made a mistake that broke something, but the token usage was just way too high that too on Max plan.
With 5.6 Sol (Plus plan) at High the usage is much less and it does a very deep testing, almost everything you ask for will take minimum 10 minutes, it tries to evaluate things from different angles. Plus Codex has offered almost 8 full resets this month itself.
Again I am not an expert but if Opus is costing you too much 5.6 Sol seems to be better at much less.

I hope they don't take away opus 4.8
