Gemini 4 Argon launch: Ultra-only access or open to Pro users?

The poster argues that locking Argon behind Ultra would be odd given its introductory API output pricing is lower than Gemini 3.1 Pro's, and calls for Pro access too.

At this point, it’s almost impossible to believe Gemini 4 Argon won’t launch today! But the real question is whether Google will stick to its original plan of giving Ultra subscribers access first, or finally make it available to Pro users too Honestly, locking Argon behind Ultra would be extremely weird, especially when its introductory API pricing is actually lower than Gemini 3.1 Pro’s on output tokens. At that point, it feels more like a marketing decision than anything else Considering Google’s current position and how far behind I think they’ve fallen, giving Pro subscribers access too would make perfect sense
