You're funny - they are spot on and any dreamer who is working for equity in these LLM-wrapper-product companies who dreams of getting rich in the next few years or so, is in for a nasty surprise.

The younger devs have largely been the ones showing us old farts (eg millennials) how do to the really sophisticated stuff with claude - custom skills, plugins, tooling like openspec, things that have had massive benefits over stock claude.

We are nowhere near the ceiling in terms of process either.

Re: flat rate going to by-usage, I believe this is largely a long tail problem. You have a small number of power users that capitalize on the flat rate to use the service orders of magnitude more than the average user.
