Quite hidden in the mobile app at least. I had to click thinking. The slider goes 5.6 Instant, 5.6 Medium, 5.6 High, 5.6 Extra High, and the surprise 6 Pro

Shouldn't this new reduction in thinking output make the model cheaper to operate? Could it be that the model is the same old LLM, with a bit newer architecture but still doing the same things, including huge amounts of thinking, just that its thinking is less clear to human readers?

Thinking output is already a relatively small part of the total input compared to raw code/text files.
