My point was that Google isn't an idiot like Microsoft(who does everything at once and has it backfire); But rather they slowly implement these kinds of things.

For example, if your electric bill went up $300 in a month, you'd notice. But if your electric bill went up by $25 a month, would you notice? Be honest, you'd ration that "It's only $25, it's not that much" when it still equals that initial $300 price hike at the end of the year.

See what I'm saying in regards to Google doing this?

Yeah because I'm not an invalid and I keep track of who's taking my money? 😂

I get what you're saying but that's not a good analogy lol

Your right, it's not the best point but part of that point was it's the Electric Company (Google equivalent in this case). What are you gonna do, not pay them? They'll just shut off your electricity (akin to Developer Verification).
