It's quite easy to switch LLM api, so you can just transition to a competitor. Competition between AI providers is quite fierce, I don't see them setting up a cartel anytime soon. And open source models are not that far beyond commercial ones.

It's easy to switch the LLM API, but in practice this requires having a strong eval suite so that the expected behavior of whatever is built on top changes within acceptable limits. It's really the implications of the LLM switch that matter.
