Presumably, they still want the free tier to help acquire new customers?

You could say they should separate the human users from the slopsters in any tier. This could be done with some quota/rate limiting model.

But, if they are either on the fence or believing that agent-based development is the way forward, then that new reality is the one they would need to support. Cutting it off will send those customers elsewhere.

And, if you've managed to handle the new workload, it is basically in the noise to also handle artisanal human developers in the background on the same solution...

They have that. I might be wrong, but I don't think they're having these issues with their enterprise offering.

Enterprise is the highest tier of paying tho. Our company is working on the Team plan is pretty much affected by each and every of those outages.

Enterprise is $21/seat/month, could consider upgrading? Not that it should be needed; but it’s not that expensive.

It's not that expensive, yes - but it's more than 5x what we are currently paying for it.

Yes they are.

Source: enterprise cloud customer, it's broken all the time.

There is GHES onprem which indeed doesn't get affected by these outages, but it's shit.
