But this is how every subscription works. Most people lose money on their gym subscription, but the convenience takes us.
What can bite them in this case though is alternate providers at the same price point that can bridge the gap. e.g. you currently get a lot more bang for your buck with the $20 OpenAI Codex subscription than you get for the $20 Claude Code subscription.
