Then there’s the questions of token efficiency and token quality.

I have to say cc opus 5 is abysmal. It talks to itself incessantly, gets stuck in minutia, fails to understand problems clearly and makes steering mistakes constantly. It also has a weird behavior where it says “ok I know exactly what to do and I will start now,” then sits waiting for user input. If you’re not on the ball you’re constantly losing 5m/1h cache. Just give me back 4.6.

I still see Opus 4.6 available in CC.

Also I have been using Opus 5 for the last few days and I find it work fine. It's a little verbose but the code quality is good.

You can even use /model to use Opus 4.5 if you want. Broadly though I find Opus 5 and most of their point releases (4.7 being the exception) to be excellent and upgrades.

Fable ends up in a confusion loop for me all the time.
