I believe in temporary nerfs. Operators reducing quality significantly to increase throughput for whatever reason (high demand?). Same session, model being completly incapable, and it being back to normal the next day. Experienced that with Anthropic models way too many times. Never on weekends, usually during US work days.
It's been a few months since I last recall this though, must have been pre-opus-5. And I know there are benchmarks for this as well, hence "believe".
