Yeah it's just inconceivable that companies whose entire business model started by engaging in wholesale for-profit theft and abuse of intellectual property would ever be so unethical as to try to lower their costs, especially just prior to an IPO.

Again, these things are constantly measured. They sell HEAPS through their API access to enterprise consumers that expect a model to not be nerfed after it's released. And you bet many of those enterprises, some spending many millions each month, are measuring this shit.

So this is a case of extraordinary claims requiring extraordinary evidence.

And even though it's super straight forward to collect the evidence, there seems to be zero substantiating the vibe bro conspiracy theories.
