It's feeling good on non-pelican workloads too. Less verbose than 5.3, cheaper/higher usage limits, vision capability and some good web design one-shots even with vision disabled.

With GLM 5.1 and 5.2, the big problem was tool calling and long-horizon coherency. 5.3 was more trustworthy at the cost of longer thinking traces, and now Flash seems to improve on it once again with a more concise, smaller model. As long as there aren't any noticeable regressions, I could see myself defaulting to this for >90% of my day-to-day coding work.
