Very strange. I find reasoning has very narrow usefulness for me. It's great to get a project in context or to get oriented in the conversation, but on long conversations I find reasoning starts to add way too much extraneous stuff and get distracted from the task at hand.

I think my coding model ranking is something like Claude Code > Claude 4 raw > Gemini > big gap > o4-mini > o3

Claude Code isn't a model in itself. By default it routes some to Opus 4 or Sonnet 4 but mostly Sonnet 4 unless you explicitly set it.
