I'm definitely seeing 4.8 use fewer tokens than 4.7 did to accomplish the same outcomes. And the key is, I think it takes less clock time for me to get the outcomes I want with 4.8 - it's more likely to get things right the first time.
I think this is us humans mis-attributing "it's getting more done" as "it costs more". I think the rate of getting more done scaled quite a bit faster than the token burn.
