As long as closed source is 6 months ahead in terms of current difference. Although this is hard to figure out using simple percent based coding benchmarks, you def. notice it when you're actually trying to do a long task. Even simple things like UI "taste" is enough for me to use opus instead of 5.5 though even though 5.5 is strictly better for anything that doesn't have a UI, ie backend, scripts, making agent workflows etc
