It’s about repackaging. With free/bundled API pricing, resellers could provide agents that min/maxed Kago API tokens in the background, eating Kagi’s compute abd effectively repackaging a competitor that deterred new human subscriptions.
That’s a bad business decision in the same way it would be a bad business decision for Netflix to re-enable infinite account sharing.

I'm not sure what you are trying to say. We are talking about a tiny amount of compute.
I refuse to believe there is a negligible margin decrease for agents using the regular search budget. Searching is cheap.
