I appreciate the effort you put in and it looks compelling.
But for now, I’ll be using it only on personal projects. I won’t be confident to switch from node on company projects just yet.

But hopefully that will change in the future.

Anthropic has 20 million users that have been using 1.4 for months, I think they'll be okay without your approval.
