Switched to Codex: Better Codex, But Less Reasoning? Anyone Else?

I recently switched main agents from Claude Code to Codex, and wow, the code quality feels way higher. But I'm noticing that Codex doesn't explain its decisions or reasoning as clearly as other models. Is it just me, or does Codex skip the 'why' behind the code more often?

Are there tricks to codex out more reasoning? Curious if anyone else has noticed this or found a good workaround.

What's your experience with Codex, especially compared to other agent models when it comes to code quality vs. explainability?
