It doesnt matter if they are the best. For the same reason hundreds of orgs are on microsoft teams right now. Large companies often care about raw dollars and cents a lot more than "actual lift per dollar". I hesitate to even speculate how much more the api pricing is for them at that scale. I know for me personally its something like 10-25x cheaper to be on subscription pricing. The only way to combat that is to set aggressive dollar limits, which seems counterproductive if we are going to argue the whole reason they are on the platform is because its "the best" and they dont mind paying for the privilege.
