IME 3.1 Pro still has better system-instruction following than Flash 3.7, esp. when there're many conditions and clauses. 3.1 also writes better prose for technical material than Flash 3.7.
Once the system prompt complexity goes up, Flash starts to write very dense english. it might be fine for tasks like coding, but not for user-facing text meant to be digested by the average person.

I haven't tested 3.8 on my workload yet.
