Almost out of my weekly usage, so I asked Claude to calculate how much it would cost to buy an equivalent amount in credits. Surely this can't be accurate, right?? ~$8000 to buy the equivalent of what you get for a $200 subscription? What assumptions are wrong here?
A Reddit user questioned Claude's calculation that buying an equivalent amount of credits would cost ~$8000, compared to a $200 subscription. The user, almost out of weekly usage, found the cost disparity insane and preferred waiting until Tuesday rather than spending money.

Seems like it would be insane to spend a dime rather than just be patient and wait till Tuesday.
