    The very first sentence:

    > Claude Opus 5.5 is amongst the leading models in intelligence, but somewhat expensive when comparing to other models of similar price.

    What does it mean for a group of similarly priced things to have one that's somewhat more expensive? Cost relative to cost means nothing. You'd think they are would talk about performance relative to cost.

      Well yes, but it's also slightly smarter compared to other models of similar intelligence.
