While it's a common tactic, and I'd vouch for it if you don't really know what you want to code in fact, but if you know what you want to get out of it, I haven't found anything I'd need opus 5.5 for instead of deepseek-flash (flash v4.1 hosted via platform.deepseek.com)

genuine question: is there an improvement in using platform deepseek com, over openrouter and a third party provider?

		Potentially higher cache hit rate at the expense of your data being kept for training.

		platform deepseek com's tos enforces use all your data on training, which is a major set back for me. Other than that, I think they are cheaper last time I compared.
