Plus GPT-6 Astra's 5-hour limit is worth about $3.50 in API usage

A user calculates that the Plus plan's GPT-6 Astra quota per 5 hours is worth only about $3.50 in API calls, and complains that Codex gives too little actual usage.

The 5hr GPT 6 Astra limit on Plus is apparently only around $3.50 worth of API usage. Meanwhile, Opus 5.5 is $4/M input and $20/M output, with cache reads at just $0.20/M. Atp the model price isn’t really my issue with Codex. It’s how little usage you actually get. MAKES SENSE??
