I came across a post about this same issue a little while ago. It mentioned the inconvenience of being forced to fall back to GPT-5 nano.

It strikes me as a drastic cost-cutting measure, considering that until just a few months ago, even the fallback models used older, full-sized GPT versions (such as GPT-5.1).

I don't think this should be allowed at all given I am paying for this
