Disagree, Opus-tier models are the workhorses. You can get a ton done with them on a $100 subscription.

And for those on API billing? Opus is still quite pricy for what you're getting done with it.

Assuming the price would converge to the subscription price, not the API price.

They make money on API costs not subscriptions. Subscriptions are not going to last forever

For users who pay subscription costs, 100% right.

But for enterprises, who have to pay API costs with no discounts, no way.
