I never get throttled by Codex at $20/mo however Claude throttles faster at same rate. I like Claude’s output in terms of code however

Or Claude is better at getting people to move to more expensive membership tiers. From reading here, it seems like Claude still has a lot of users. If Claude has lower limits for their $20 plan, it stands to reason that people are paying for more expensive plans to get similar levels of usage. This assumes they aren’t reducing demand through the throttling, which is a big assumption.

I’d love to know what Anthropic’s comparable numbers look like.

In other words, Codex likely has a lower demand:capacity ratio compared to Claude. Which can mean either OpenAI did a better job at building out capacity, or the demand for Claude outstripped Anthropic's projections. Or both.

Or Codex models are more efficient that Claude. Plus the two things you mentioned.
