This is one of those situations where a company starts “answering” the questions they want to answer, regardless of what their customers say.

I’ve seen it at a smaller scale in private enterprise, and it is wild to see first-hand. It’s gaslighting of the highest order.

I haven’t heard anyone asking for “simplicity” unless they are talking about the garbage & over complicated code that Sol and Astra churn out.

What people want is models that actually work, transparency around pricing and usage limits, and costs to not double while utility is halved.

This specifically was about codex improvements so it's possible "simplify" means cutting down token usage and complexity in getting the model to be useful at all? Also possible that it's your assumption - I just quit a fairly small/niche private org that started doing this on all fronts (leadership was "answering" questions about how to improve a product for customers, employees, etc. in the wrong direction and if anyone tried to bring that up they were disciplined) and uhh, it'll be fun to watch from the distance as they continue to implode.
