So the "show thinking" button is essentially just for when you want to read even more untrue text?
Depending on the task it can significantly improve the quality of the output, but it doesn't help with everything. It's more useful for stuff that has to be reasoned about in multiple iterations, not something that's a direct answer.
Except not really, because even if stuff that has to be reasoned about in multiple iterations was a distinct category of problems, reasoning models by all accounts hallucinate a whole bunch more.
