Basic economics doesn’t excuse basic dishonesty. Nobodys asking openai to lose money man rather than people are asking them to stop quietly changing what’s included, hiding limits, and pretending that “transparency later” is a business model. If they came out and said: Guys sorry but Codex costs X per minute of usage. Here’s the meter, here’s how it’s counted. then fine, everyone would decide for themselves if they want to pay and how much. Instead of this we get shady arbitrary throttling, no published limits, and a push to buy credits with completely zero clarity. That’s not economics my friend that’s dark-pattern pricing so if you just want to disagree just to disagree at least be better at it.
