I would risk a guess that people have a wrong intuition about the long-context pricing and are complaining because of that.
Yeah, the per-token price stays the same, even with large context. But that still means that you're spending 4x more cache-read tokens in a 400k context conversation, on each turn, than you would be in a 100k context conversation.
