Opus 5 tops every benchmark. But....
This week I noticed a repeating pattern that happens with most of the users
Claude buries simple answers in jargon it never explains and
it turns a one-line question into a five-paragraph essay you have to mine for the actual answer
I hit both walls myself. Asked a quick question, got a term I'd never seen, no definition, then three paragraphs of context I didn't ask for
Burned tokens, burned time
So I built a skill around one rule: explain it like you're talking to a 15 year old. No assumed expertise, no dense wording, no padding
Under the hood it leans on ASD-STE100 — the simplified English standard manuals use
One idea per sentence. Common words only. No hidden acronyms
It's built for people who can't afford to misread a sentence, which is exactly the bar an AI answer should clear to
Since I started using it, the difference isn't subtle. Same questions, half the words, zero re-reading
Turns out most "complexity" in an answer isn't the topic being hard. It's the explanation being lazy
Anyone else keeping a running list of terms Opus 5 uses without ever defining them?
