GPT-5.6 Sol users being routed to GPT-5.5-mini instead? Model used is not the same as choosen model.

Practical Tip

Is anyone else seeing this? I selected GPT-5.6 Sol in ChatGPT, but the responses indicate that the conversation is actually running on GPT-5.5-mini. It looks like users may be getting routed away from the model they selected. The model picker says Sol, but the assistant identifies itself as 5.5-mini. If there is automatic routing or fallback happening, it should be clearly disclosed. A selected model should mean the selected model is being used. Screenshots attached showing the mismatch.
