Great find! I would just add that trust is indeed in the boring parts, but with gymnastics like this trust can be irreversibly lost. Then, no matter how boring tool is, there is no going back.

Anthropic has become a choice for many developers because of Claude Code, but in the recents months with "small things" like this and whole Fable fiasco they are *actively* pushing people to both competitors and local alternatives.

And if someone spends a significant amount of time and money to switch, it will be really hard for Anthropic to get those people back.
