Amazingly, these few days the Gemini 3.8 Flash (High) has been catching much more problems in code reviews than before. I think it started from the second day since I posted the observation above. Maybe somebody from Google saw my posts and tuned some knobs in the model to allow more critical thinking?
Another observation, Gemini's review on code is more critical now, but its review on design plans is still quite agreeable - it tends to approve Codex's design plan immediately, while Claude could often pick out a bunch of problems in the design plan in the first round of reviews.
