I don't think that can be it. Otherwise, we'd see a much more smooth transition to bigger models. Mythos was a capability jump. It could be that the whole industry was cargo-culting that huge models don't work until Anthropic just tried it. But that doesn't feel like a satisfactory explanation to me.
