It sounds like you’re a Google employee making excuses for what I consider abject failure to implement “advanced features” like… a drop-down list… per user instead of per org.
Partners or resellers have no reason to exist as a part of this trivial database design concern.
It’s a category error of the highest order to assume that only “largest enterprises” want or need per-user product licensing control. If anything, it’s the smallest orgs that need to be frugal at this level of granularity.
The relatively high cost of AI subscriptions just makes this error much more obvious, impossible to ignore or pretend is “actually better somehow”.
Because, you know, everyone would rather pay $200/mo so that even their gardener and the bus driver has an “Ultra” AI subscription than spend even ten minutes in a web portal assigning that license only to the sole developer on the payroll!
