So it seems that Anthropic has a hidden list of special words that redirect billing without warning or disclosure. And when this is pointed out as a billing error they say they won't refund until it gets the HN treatment. If they can/will bill you differently based on actual use then it seems like how they determine that use is important to disclose right?

There is really no reason to use Claude code anymore. Codex is much better with gpt 5.5. Not to mention, it’s open source, they play well with third parties, they don’t hold the model like mythos for elite companies, they have other good models like imagegen and I can use however the heck I want like openclaw.

Another B2B win handed to Microsoft Copilot/Azure, just for being boring and consistent. It doesn't matter if your product is better if it's unreliable and inconsistent.
