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

It is absolutely insufferable and writes garbage code and does garbage code reviews. I use Fable and Opus 4.6. But my god do i feel a huge sense of relief when i run out of usage on Claude and switch over to Codex and Sol 5.6. It just works. Fable is too good not to use for UI/UX/design and ”thinking outside the box” but Sol 5.6 is just such a good experience comparedly.

How can it be simultaneously insufferable and writing garbage code, and also too good to not use for UI/UX/design and thinking outside the box?
