As a claude code power user, when I get the 'rate the feedback on Claude' pop up, I used to say good or fine out of habit, and immediately after sending this feedback, I felt an instant degradation and mistakes that usually don't happen.
Now I dismiss it every time and the quality is more consistent.
Complete adhoc and personal experience but something I've observed, wouldn't be surprised if they nerfed on a per session basis
I could totally see them running an experiment to test user's stickiness/quality perception with decreased model performance. Facebook was doing exactly this in 2016. They tested the loyalty of Android users by secretly introducing errors that would crash the app to find the threshold at which a person would abandon. That was 10 years ago - imagine what the state of the art in user manipulation is like now.

Random performance is random, your brain will jump through hurdles to fit patterns where there aren't any.
