Thanks, that's so odd that I assumed it was about efficiency, which is how I treat tokens. It's hard to imagine a 19th century business man ordering his staff to send as many long winded telegrams as they can.

Think of it like this: telegraphs are the hot new thing. The more you send, the more modern and relevant your company. No more Pony Express. You can either have employees sending 1-2 a day. Or, 100 per day. Wow so advanced, so modern, invest now.
I don’t think the analogy works too well for one specific reason: you can increase your number of used tokens without ever „sending a telegram“! Run a bunch of Claude sessions, ask them to review various docs sites, create random prototypes, they just throw all of that away. Congrats, you’re a token maxxer
