The reality is that Fable will eventually be obsolete and Sonnet / Opus will surpass it. Fable did cost 2x as much as Opus, so I assume it involves a much higher cost for what it did, but I wouldn't be surprised if Fable will be obsoleted by Opus or even Sonnet sooner or later at less cost.
Have you considered getting better at coding so you can build stuff yourself instead of waiting for models you might not be able to get access to anymore?
According to CursorBench [0], Fable is the first runner-up, scoring 72.9% ($18.02, Max), while Opus 4.7 Max hits 64.8% ($11.02) and GPT-5.5 Extra High sits at 64.3% ($4.37).
I bet most American companies would choose Fable over GPT-5.5. Employee salaries cost far more than token costs. Getting the job done right is much more important.

Okay I don’t care about “eventually”, I want Fable now.

Sure, my point about "things will eventually catch up to, and surpass Fable" still stands.
