This means nothing because Sonnet 5’s cost per task is absurd! On average it’s more than TWICE as expensive as Opus 5!! And it’s a significantly worse model. Absolute insanity from Anthropic I have no idea what tf they’re doing.

Why it worked

Ends on a short line that is easy to quote and repeat.
Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Short sentences keep the pace up, so the reader never has to re-read a line.
Opens on a negative, which reads as a warning and is harder to ignore than a claim.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook → Landing
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: personal, energetic
Written for: People building with AI
