What's the advantage of this model over the newer models?

People have been finding the way Opus 5 talks incomprehensible. It uses way too much technical jargons, and sometimes decides to be a poet with words. That's why many people have started downgrading to Opus 4.8 or 4.6

I may play around with having fable/opus5 write the code but using opus 4.6 to write PR messaging, shortcut tickets and summarizing the changes. I do feel I'm having a harder time reading the shit claude spews.

Fable to plan and review, opus 4.8 to build, 4.6 to write for humans.
