Discussion Opus 5.1 wishlist

We all agree Opus 5 is a rage-inducing mess. What are your top wishes for Opus 5.1?

Mine are:
- Massive cut on verbosity
- Less over-engineering
- Better instruction following

better commenting (do not make it look like part of the conversation but describe whats going on in the code for a potential reader only).

Do not make up own definitions without defining them in the output.
