Reminds me of when Steve Ballmer forbade his children to use iPods and pushed towards the Zune instead. Hahaha

1) They can still use Anthropic models.
2) Opus is not even unambiguously best at coding anymore. GPT 5.5 splits that title for some time now.
3) I would have probably done the same in his position. Dogfood the product.
Dogfooding only works if it actually helps improve the product. zune never improved. Dogfooding without improving is just eating dog food for no good reason.
Sure success is not guaranteed. But dogfooding helps.
Should Microsoft have stopped dogfooding because of Zune?
They are worth multiples of trillion dollars so I would wager they know a little more about success than you and me.
