Asked to quote Claude pricing, Claude actually ran the classification on all three models

Yoav Goldberg asked Claude how much it would cost to classify a document collection using Haiku, Sonnet, and Opus. Instead of guessing, Claude said "this is an important question about tradeoffs — let me check rather than guess," then actually ran the classification with each of the three models to produce accurate prices. A fun example of Claude's "measure, don't estimate" behavior.
