Yes, but that's running at max. Nobody is going to do that unless they want the best possible performance at all cost, in which case, they get what they asked for.

Fable 5.2 at high scores a 62, which is better than anything else on the market (except Fable 5.2 at xhigh and max) -- and is about a third of the price per task.

The model feels bench maxed to me. It is back to Opus and prior Fable behavior of me pointing out constant mistakes, with it apologizing and saying that it should have looked at what I point it to.

The thing is, all of these pointers are in the CLAUDE.md file, so it just ignored instructions because it thought it was smarter than the world and didn't need them. It feels really arrogant is how I would describe it.
