I also had bad luck when I finally tried Gemini 3 in the gemini CLI coding tool. I am unclear if it's the model or their bad tooling/prompting. It had, as you said, hallucination problems, and it also had memory issues where it seemed to drop context between prompts here and there.

It's also slower than both Opus 4.5 and Sonnet.
