After testing multiple versions in a web development scenario, the author believes that 5.5 is significantly better than 5.6.
They point out that even in Ultra mode, 5.6 frequently fails at simple tasks like modifying text, failing to deliver usable code for two consecutive days. It even broke their website and backups via FTP. As a result, they ultimately canceled their 20x subscription and rolled back to 5.5.
