The point is that the less capable models are also borderline AGI. You're paying 10-100x more to get a few percentage points improvement in performance.

Put another way, what I get for my under $3/mo is better than what you were getting 3-5 months ago paying $200/mo. So you're paying a lot just to be ahead by a few paltry months.
