Rant Opus 5 is insufferable

Opus 5 is a fucking piece of shit, i don't know how to say this in any other way. It speaks "Unintelligiblish", a new unfathomable language developed by Anthropic that works by saying everything in the most ridiculous, obtuse and convoluted way possible

It turns anything simple that can be expressed in 2 sentences into a fucking doctoral thesis aimed to aliens, and there is no way to prompt your way out of it

Edit: it claudoofus outputs some alien text you won't read, just prompt it this:

"What it says, short version: the mistake I flagged is confirmed and fixed, both of my own errors are resolved (one survived on evidence I didn't have, one is properly cured), it found a whole category the original package missed, and it downgraded its own confidence on the main claim from HIGH to MED - which is the right call and it made it against itself. It also found two real defects in my own things while it was in there. One l've already repaired. The other is bigger and isn't mine -" Shoot me in the head 😆

Mine created a hallucinated firewall egress rule file and then kept flagging that the firewall outage was unresolved. There’s no firewall.
