There are two wrinkles to this: - For Claude.ai subscriptions I think Sonnet is much cheaper than Opus. This is why there was a "Sonnet only" usage bar for Max tier for the longest time. - For some tasks the sheer amount of raw input tokens is the most important. For example multimodal computer use tasks. You can't make them any more efficient on Opus by turning down the reasoning, so a cheaper model like Sonnet is useful for them | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

> This is why there was a "Sonnet only" usage bar for Max tier for the longest time. it's still there. I still don't totally grok why I can't use all my tokens on Sonnet if I want to... maybe that signals something? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
