It's the authors choice to set the price, and they do offer a free plan. For you maybe the value isn't there, but that doesn't mean a "GPT-4 wrapper" can't provide others value. And I give credit to the author for going with $30 instead of something silly like $6 because trying to build a business on $6/mo is a much harder than on $30/mo.

You think the chance that 5 people think $6 is a reasonable price is lower than one person thinking $30 is?

That's not at all improbable. And if you can't set things up so both minnows and whales are paying the price they are comfortable, its often a better business decision to dump the minnows and the overhead of supporting them and focus on the whales rather than having both, but paying minnow prices.
