You seem to be ignoring the comments to the contrary made on your original comment when stating this.

Sure it's going to cost some orgs more, and it makes sense that it does. I'd wager that data at rest (lots of repos) costs a hell of lot less to run than active requests (lots of users).

Personally my bill will be going down from $25 to $7, and I'm fine with that.

My companies bill will be going down from $650/month to $583/month.

The point we are raising is there is an entire category of companies (agencies / software house) where the price is going up dramatically (5x, 10x or more). This happens because of the choice of billing outside collaborators (even read-only ones).

Lots of collaboraters does not translate to lots of requests. I'd be totally fine being charged by size of data, number of requests,... Number of people that I allow to view my code is a very bad metric for me, especially given that most of those people are already part of a paid account.

> active requests (lots of users).

Also, more users = more problems.
