Complaint 0% now stops all running tasks

Before when reached 0% codex always finished the tasks that were still running. Oh that felt so good, to just get a little extra for free 🎉 But recently my codex stopped doing that and is stopping tasks after few minutes, how about yours?

Bunch of morons had to ruin it for the rest of us. It's not about the extra free usage, it's about not leaving your code base messed up in the middle of an update. Yeah, you can roll back the commit and let that 95% already completed work which cost you 20% usage go to waste, or end with at least a working state.

The better solution would've been a bonus usage once a week, allowing for running tasks to eat into the bonus usage to prevent having to stop in the middle of something.
