Can anyone explain to me why they've removed parameter controls for temperature and top-p in reasoning models, including gpt-5? It strikes me that it makes it harder to build with these to do small tasks requiring high-levels of consistency, and in the API, I really value the ability to set certain tasks to a low temp.

It's because all forms of sampler settings destroy safety/alignment. That's why top_p/top_k are still used and not tfs, min_p, top_n sigma, etc, why temperature is locked to 0-2 arbitrary range, etc
Open source is years ahead of these guys on samplers. It's why their models being so good is that much more impressive.
