Paul_IPv6i think whoever observed that as long as all the promotions/bonuses are already paid, teams won't care about undoing what they already knew was pointless.
large micro$lop customers will still buy whatever swill micro$lop ships and small businesses aren't cared about by micro$lop managers or stakeholders.

There could be an alternative explanation (if the Copilot isn't a local model, I don't know how it works in these cases) - they may take into account that it's too expensive.
