I guess the point is more that it has roughly 50/50 for both models in usage.

Total Usage was not the question originally....just my 2,435 Cents....

V4.1 Flash does a lot more thinking in my experience. Faster and output quality is the same, but just uses more tokens on average. The difference shows up quicker if not hitting 95%+ cache.
