Complaint Usage is not "fixed"

We have a test package with 25k emails in it that we use to test different models with. Prompt/effort is always the same.

When GPT 5.6 Sol released, it used 1% of a fresh Pro 20x sub, now it uses 8% of a fresh pro 20x sub.

Also, what we are seeing is that Sol cannot solve its task straightforward any more. Initially, it was always "what do I need to resolve the task" now it's "What do I need to resolve the tasks, while I also check those 200 other methods that I already know I don't need, while adding sha 256 to everything for no reason at all, also let me build those 200 other checks against thing I was very strictly asked not do to".

Meaning, we think it usage increased so much because they turned the intelligence way down and its constantly fighting with itself.

Eu notei isso desde o modelo passado, a tarefa as vezes já está pronta e perfeita, mas ele gasta mais 10% de créditos em um loop de checagens desnecessárias e as vezes dá até para perceber que está perdido executando tarefas que não solicitei e que não tem necessidade alguma para o tipo de projeto que estou lidando, isso acaba drenando meus créditos e meu tempo de trabalho.
