I mean I don't think $50k is the ceiling, unless you're talking about actual cash out. Claude code subscriptions right now can easily clear you $25-35k a year in nominal value for $2400 out of pocket cost.

Given sufficient budget and scope, I could certainly productively burn a half million dollars in tokens a year or more. I think that's where we're headed anyway, buying a 2nd or 5th claude max subscription feels slightly excessive for personal usage, but at a corporate level...

at the corporate level you pay full price.

And a moderately heavy user dev can easily spend a few $K a month, so yeah. Not impossible, but a high cost, and the diminishing returns definitely kick in
