It's still a big leap from what he actually said to assume that one would be restricted to an individual budget.

It's already variably the case or not (whether 'unlimited' or limited across the whole team) at different companies today.

All he's saying is that he expects to be paying not a couple of hundred a month per employee, or mere thousands, but about half of an employee's salary per employee on LLM usage. The article acts like he said it was going to come out of the employees' pocket directly with a corresponding pay-cut!
