how many times do you have to be metaphorically hit in the head with a brick before you realize inference margins at api pricing were 80%+

So, does that mean they're selling tokens at cost? Or that they realized they were doing 180% more work than necessary and they're passing the savings on because "your margin is my opportunity" and this is a dog-eat-dog fight, but 80% margins are nice, no one needs multiple hundreds?

I was metaphorically hit in the head with the brick of already provisioned computing with a lot less demand than anticipated by multiple MoUs.
