You should probably consider that your perspective is also biased and you see all the companies that are in esting.

IME, MCP has often lagged APIs in terms of complete ess, so as a user, if there was an API, I would be better off using that because Codex is already so good at calling APIs.

Now, the API story sucks for non-coders, but I'm not really bullish on MCP for dev tools atm.
