That's definitely a problem too.

But minor credit to Anthropic, at least they've mostly stuck to their four model names (Haiku, Sonnet, Opus, and Fable). You mostly know where a model is MEANT to be positioned from the name alone. OpenAI cannot keep it consistent from release to release.

But, yes, currently Opus Vs. Fable has the same issue as Sol-6.1 Vs. Astra.

I don’t think opus-5.5 is better than fable-5.1. I think opus is better overall because it’s much faster and cheaper than fable but if speed and cost is not a factor fable it’s probably just as if not slightly better than opus, especially at front-end design (tho the difference is marginal and no one should be really using fable day to day due to this alone).
