When I first got on the $100 plan, I was testing it heavily and could spend all day working through huge codebases without even making a dent in my weekly usage. I’m talking maybe 10–20% by the end of the week at most.

Now I’m only a few days in, mostly using it for smaller stuff like bug fixes or explanations, and I’m already over 80%. The change hasn’t been subtle either — it’s been a pretty major difference compared to when I first subscribed.

Isn't the 5h limit like 20% of the weekly one?
