This reads like GP saying "enterprise never pays sticker price" and you responding "I thought so too until I saw the sticker price".
Is there some info you have that you can't/didn't share? Your article doesn't offer anything beyond the above.

The sentence you quoted doesn't say anything about the token price for enterprises matching the sticker price. It just says that enterprises are paying a consumption based price (presumably billed as some $/token), on top of a per-seat fee.
