When you force structure before the answer, quality jumps. Same model, same context - totally different depth.
ChatGPT-5.1 is different. It reasons deeper, takes initiative, and can behave like a true teammate — but only if you prompt it correctly. This template forces the model to think like an expert, gather missing context, make assumptions, avoid filler, and produce complete, useful outputs instead of half-baked advice.
