To summarize: the classifiers Anthropic puts in front of Fable are way, way too zealous and have way too many false positives.
From my experience, the model itself is very useful when it isn't refusing any of your prompts.

And just to be clear, plan was already done, just had to review it, it got opus 4.8 Max and gpt 5.5 Extra High validated already and they didn't use much resource for it so I just don't get it. I guess they want to use it as a way to feed the extra credit money income.
I'm using a homemade ai consensus thing for planning and I wanted to add fable to it but forget it.
Or maybe I should use fable in low effort reasoning mode and it will be better than opus 4.8 at max ?
Fable-class models will probably be cheaper for Anthropic to serve within the year, though. And rumors are GPT-6 is of similar size and intelligence to Fable and may come out within the next few months. OpenAI models tend to give you more bang for your buck, probably in part due to OpenAI being able to throw more capital and compute around on top of being particularly willing to loss-lead to stay competitive with Anthropic.
(Normally we prefer to find a representative phrase from the article itself, but I found that too daunting and gave up.)
