So how do I find out whether the answer to my question was run on the discount hardware, or whether it's actually correct?

I'd say use the API, search and high reasoning if you want accuracy.

But then you can partially start to see why it doesn't make economic sense to do this.

Personally I assume that anything I send through their chat UI will run on the cheapest settings they can get away with.
