Oof, that's a bad outcome. Half your weekly usage and a 50-minute scan just to get a HEAD error at the end is not acceptable. --max-cost can help limit estimated spend, but that doesn't fix the underlying problem or give you your quota back. We need to handle a changing checkout and partial results much better. Sorry you ran into this. Please send me an email.

I set --max-cost to 100, it bailed before finishing. Unknown if I would get full results for $105 or $500. Either way I lost $100.
Where are you people getting your money if you can blow it at harebrained experiments like this? This is mind-staggeringly expensive for what it does!
Damn. Just ran it and it used 5 years worth of Pro usage in 5 minutes.

If ya wouldn't mind crediting me a quick 60 months that would be great.
