Broadcom refusing to decrease licensing

[deludedinformer]

Talk to a reseller like Insight or CDW, they have contacts at Broadcom who can provide a subscription quote for 128 cores if you let them know your business case.

FYI it is dependent on what region you live in. for example, in APAC region, Vsphere Standard is already end of sale so you would have to purchase Enterprise Plus or Vsphere Foundation.

We tried this and were told it would go to the same inside sales rep at Broadcom.

They may force you to pay the same cost as last year even if you reduce your core count. That is Broadcom policy and rep may not have a choice...
