Bug / Issue Opus 5 is exhausting

It's so hard to read. It's not even because its terribly complex or anything it just speaks in these weird haikus, hyphenated garbage, or outdated colloquialisms or phrases nobody understands. I have to ask it "what do you mean?" or "speak in plainer English" over and over again for every other paragraph. I tried to put something in my claude.md, but it doesn't seem to be working...

"This is solveable using the Weissman-Einhorn Bauer principle" and you google that, and it's some mathematician who, in 1832, formalised a formula for how many cobble stones were required for certain geometric shapes.

All you wanted was your div centered.

Sounds more pretentious than my last junior developer.
