Sorry, this article's argument just doesn't hold water. Yes, we want Claude to write "the best text" and having its word choice even very slightly varied could arguably be construed as "not the best." But "best" is highly subjective, always has been. Claude has never, and will never, write what _you_ consider the best version of a piece of text. It has many choices, influenced by all kinds of random, context-dependent weights and environmental settings. Slightly tweaking weights to prefer certain phrasings might even tilt it toward your idea of "best."
