As a user, whether of ChatGPT or of the API, I absolutely do care, so I can modify and tune my prompt with the necessary clarifications.
My suspicion is that the reason for hiding the reasoning tokens is to prevent other companies from creating a big CoT reasoning dataset using o1.
It is anti-competitive behavior. If a user is paying through the nose for the reasoning tokens, and yes they are, the user deserves to be able to see them.
