There are lots of parties that can’t make Anthropic accounts for various reasons (geolocks, banned cards etc) Old accounts are worth a lot to these parties because they aren’t under as much scrutiny as new accounts are. Get a bunch of API keys from old accounts without these restrictions, and you can generate a bunch of data for distillation. I’m surprised people don’t get this tbh
