Bug Description
The Fable false-positive guardrail triggering on completely benign work is unreasonably high -- please improve this issue! As paying user for this service, it's extremely frustrating. I’m an ecosystem modeler (LSMs), and also study theory-based microbial community ecology, and Fable is essentially unusable in both cases — which are EXACTLY use cases where Fable would greatly accelerate research, and Opus 4.8 consistently underperforms. I find it difficult to believe that it's not possible to create more effective guardrails than you currently have in terms of permitting benign/safe use while also actually functioning better in terms of blocking dangerous activity.
