One thing that I found interesting is that most of the discourse surrounding the topic happened with the assumption that the rewrite was happening with an Opus-like model, and not with Fable. Those assumptions, at least partially, were used as arguments against the fact that the rewrite was feasible and/or a good idea.

Clearly the model itself doesn't completely change the narrative, but at least as a note to myself, I would like to be more careful with assuming the capabilities of the models used internally by Anthropic and affiliated orgs.

I thought the same thing. Looking back, a possible signal for next time is when we see an Anthropic owned company disabling the Claude Co-Authored-By trailer. [1]

Normally they'd be taking every chance to promote Claude unless it was something (Fable) that we weren't supposed to know about back in May.
