This is a good counter argument. But you have to note that this is after OpenAI cut Luna costs by 80%. If you compare launch pricing, Qwen probably comes out ahead on a cost-performance basis.
The luna cost cuts were real though, not a one time promotion or something, due to some optimization (probably distillation?) that openai did.
