Yeah, I know it's new tech and the pipeline for the magic is a bunchof shims ontop of a non-deterministic models; but the MBAs are going to swoop in eventually and segmenting the users into tiers of price discrimnation is in the pike regardless of how earnest the current PMs are.
Hmm, honestly I'm not so sure. Many devs seem extremely price-sensitive and the switching cost is... zero.
If Anthropic do something you don't like, you just set a few environment variables and suddenly you're using the Claude Code harness with a local model, or one of thousands available through OpenRouter. And then there is also OpenCode. I haven't tried this, but I'm not worried.
