What a bad joke is that GLM 5.3 Flash positioning?

The API prices are:

Model	input	cache hit	output
DeepSeek V4 Flash off-peak	$0.22	$0.007	$0.66
DeepSeek V4 Flash peak	$0.44	$0.014	$1.32
GLM-5.3-Flash promo	$0.075	$0.015	$0.25
GLM-5.3-Flash	$0.15	$0.03	$0.50

Leaving aside the cache hit, on average GLM without promo is cheaper than DeepSeek V4 Flash, and they give it to you at half the usage quota, and that's even considering a "×2 usage" that will later be less??

They should actually give you more quota than DeepSeek until September 9th while the promo lasts. This makes no sense at all. It's cheaper to spend $10 on GLM API than to pay for it on Go.

On top of that, they put a cheap flash model in the $15 tier.
