But does it still generate slop?

I'm late to the party and I'm just getting started with Antrophic models. I have been finding Sonnet decent enough, but it seems to have trouble naming variables correctly (it's not just that most names are poor and undescriptive, sometimes it names it wrong, confusing) or sometimes unnecessarily declaring, re-declaring variables, encoding, decoding, rather than using the value that's already there etc. Is Opus better at this?
