They really need to figure out the rules, look I'd love to use a custom harness with Claude Code that I can extend, or build my own (which I'm doing) and use it with my Claude Code license, I don't want to overspend on tokens if I can help it. They really need to set their bar for the next model releases to use less tokens, or to trim their own cost for how these models are run. I'd be okay with a slightly slower experience with Claude Code if it meant similar throughput, but less cost, especially if I can build my own harness for it.

They might've just hit a ceiling with the quality they can get per token? Maybe the only real way left to scale quality is to increase token usage?

A company built groundup on rule-breaking? Ain't gonna happen.
