Unfortunately their unlimited storage for ~$14/month via gsuite is the best storage deal on the internet. I've got 13TB and counting in there and would prefer to not lose that account.

I've also got another grandfathered in free gsuite account I've been using for personal things for about 7 years, changing from that would be a nightmare.

I suppose I'm part of the problem, being unwilling to do something about it because I have more to lose than gain.

Ok, I had to look that up.

Business / $12 month

"Unlimited cloud storage (or 1TB per user if fewer than 5 users)"

Yeah that is what they write for the terms. In practice though they have never enforced the 1TB/user clause, can't find any references to them doing that ever. Many people claim to have many terabytes with no enforcement on the user clause, myself included at 13TB currently with 1 user for just under a year so far. Apparently it has been this way for years.

Effectively you get unlimited storage for $12 + taxes/month.

It's a pretty smoking deal if you don't mind the (seemingly minuscule) chance that one day they'll ask for more money or pull the plug. In my use case all the data is easily retrieved again so it would only be a minor inconvenience.
