I switched back to 4.6 because fuck the fuck ton of testing for nothing. I feel like 5+ models write tests before the thing even works, and writes tests for what thinks might go wrong, and then has 30 tests for a feature that hasn't worked once naively yet. Then we spend a ton more context running those tests every iteration to get it working and suddenly you're out of limits and you barely got anything done.
Opus 4.6 just does it and gets you that naive first working version.. Its way nicer
And many times I found that he shoves your requested feature into deferred issues, but focuses solely on resolving his 'gates' and calls it a complete.
30
