To keep this in perspective, Google Fi costs substantially more than every other phone plan unless you travel internationally on a regular basis.

Google Fi costs me substantially less than any other phone plan (that I'm aware of).
Perhaps if a person used a lot of mobile data (at $10/GB) it would. But I'm on WiFi for the most part with moderate mobile data usage and my bills are usually around $30/month or slightly less. Compared to $70+ GF pays.
If you have Comcast home internet, you might be able to use Xfinity Mobile (only BYOP for iPhone atm but they do have a few $100 backs for some phones on their site). It costs $0 for calling/text and $12/gig.
I hardly ever use cellular data services (because wi-fi is everywhere).
YMMV on usage patterns, how much you consume data when not connected via wi-fi, etc, but its simply wrong to say that Google Fi costs more than other options.
