By reputation -- I can't vouch for this personally, and I don't know if it'll still be true with this update -- Opus is still often better for things like creative writing and conversations about emotional or political topics.

Yes, (old) 3.5 Sonnet is distinctly worse at emotional intelligence, flexibility, expressiveness and poetry.
Are you also implying that new 3.5 sonnet is better at those things?
No, Opus is better. I have no experience with 3.5.new.
