I'm curious if this might help Cursor's lighting money on fire problem?

is this enough of a price difference to make cursor profitable?

I think gpt-5-mini should really help them. At least from these benchmark scores, there probably shouldn't be a huge performance degradation for letting gpt-5-mini drive most of the workflow. Of course users might still want to just run with latest and greatest (but still gpt-5 will be cheaper I think)
