DS wouldn't be 10x cheaper than the subsidized subscription plans from openai/anthropic. Although it is of course much cheaper than the enterprier/API pricing- I think if you're on the subscription plans, you can't beat that on performance per price.

The subs plans economically temporary and don't allow you to create agents which is the dominant market for this technology. They are subsidized so you build your business processes around Claude console, but given the critical nature of the tech only a foolish or temporary business would do such a thing.
