>3. We're massively overusing SOTA models. As long as you're on a subsidized subscription, you can use Claude Opus 4.8 high to write blog article meta descriptions. If you paid by token, you wouldn't do that.

This idea that the subscriptions are subsidized is repeated over and over, but I've never seen any proof of this. It seems to be entirely based on the inferred API cost the subscription usage could give you, but there are a lot of assumptions needed for that to follow.
