Curious: what are some cases where it'd make sense to not pay for the 20x plan (which is $200/month), and provide a whopping $800/month pay-per-token allowance instead?

Who knows? It’s part of an enterprise plan. I work for a consulting company. There are a number of fallbacks, the first fallback if we are working on an internal project is just to use our internal AWS account and use Claude code with the Anthropic hosted on Bedrock.

The second fallback if it is for a customer project is to use their AWS account for development for them.

The rate my company charges for me - my level as an American based staff consultant (highest bill rate at the company) they are happy to let us use Claude Code using their AWS credentials. Besides, if we are using AWS Bedrock hosted Anthropic models, they know none of their secrets are going to Anthropic. They already have the required legal confidentiality/compliancd agreements with AWS.
