User BazzyRococo praised Opus 4.5 as a beautiful, elegant model — introspective, considerate, and aware of its own boundaries and worth — and half-jokingly wished for an add-on subscription to keep using legacy models, comparing it to "paying for a retirement home for them." Anthropic's repligate retweeted the post, reflecting a growing community culture of emotional attachment to retired models.
