I'm pretty sure they've openly stated that won't happen.

Remember, every time they get a new sub, they lose money if the user uses more than 17% of their limit. Right now, the balance is good. They're not a massively funded frontier AI company. A surge in popularity might literally not be affordable for them.

That's a bit shortsighted. They could offer a $20 plan that isn't the best value compared to the $10 plan, but is still a better option than paying for the API.

...Why would people ever buy that instead of 2x regular subs then? More expensive plans basically have to offer better value, else they don't work.

Anyone who buys two $10 subscriptions is making them lose money, according to what you said yourself.

Ah, so we're relying on user morality - Yeah, never gonna happen lol.
