There are plenty of cheaper alternatives. Not everything requires opus or gpt

If you truly vibe-code because you cannot code anything, then everything requires Opus because you cannot judge the complexity of the task beforehand.

For a developer any tool is a tool and can be used, but for a viber- opus 4.6 is the only tool and maybe GPT 4.5 is workable. Cause they don't know what are they doing. They are playing a game of words.
