The change is meant to provide increased visibility in your paid compute consumption.

Yeah, I was looking on Google Colab Github page. There were some issues about "Hey! I got a Pro(+) account, and I'm keeping to be limited, but I don't know how I can check how much resources I still have" kind of messages.

I think this is one of the reasons Google is switching to this model.

By far, the biggest user complaint I get is "why can't I access a GPU" which this change will address.
