The opportunity cost to who? Its getting super expensive for businesses and engineers across the board to pay for frontier models.

The cost of the hardware to run local models is still massively more expensive than the subscriptions while offering worse models.

Eventually I think it will even out but right now the hosted stuff is very subsidised.
